Resumo: | Electrical Engineering students must learn the fundamentals of electricity in a very short time, due to the increasing number and size of areas addressed on EE courses. While some students have been exposed to those fundamentals during secondary level education, others have not. These circumstances increase the complexity of devising a good approach to motivate all students for learning. One example occurs when teaching the analysis methods for DC Linear Electrical Circuits, where the number of all possible arbitrary choices grows exponentially with the number of circuit branches. While first-time-exposed students are required to learn first how to apply the different analysis methods, the remaining students are required to calculate the total number of possible set of equations that solve the circuit. To serve both student groups, we developed an application that helps understanding the way arbitrary choices affect the set of equations generated for solving a customizable circuit. |

Electrical Engineering students must learn the fundamentals of electricity in a very short time, due to the increasing number and size of areas addressed on EE courses.

One example occurs when teaching the analysis methods for DC Linear Electrical Circuits, where the number of all possible arbitrary choices grows exponentially with the number of circuit branches. While first-time-exposed students are required to learn first how to apply the different analysis methods, the remaining students are required to calculate the total number of possible set of equations that solve the circuit. To serve both student groups, we developed an application that helps understanding the way arbitrary choices affect the set of equations generated for solving a customizable circuit. |
