Application
LEARNING STRATEGIES
Distance Learning using the Blackboard VLE. The student will engage with the Blackboard site for this module to cover the learning material which includes documents, videos, exercises, reflection, formative and summative assignments. This will occupy the independent study time.
RESOURCES
Technology laboratory for Electronics experiments
Computer Laboratory for Simulations.
Library
SPECIAL ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS
This module builds on the concepts and practices learnt in the module Electronics 1. Students are required to have completed this module, or equivalent, prior to this module.
