This might have influenced the students not to work with MOSFETs in their projects.ConclusionsThe traditional pre-defined diode labs are achieving their goal of providing a greater learningexperience of diodes and their applications, as opposed to the pre-defined transistor-circuit labswhich simply provide the basic foundation. The results of the survey suggest that the learningprocess is greatly enhanced by real life applications such as the student’s projects.

Of the 16 teams thatfaced this performance grading, 14 successfully raised their quarter above 6 feet, one team raisedit two feet, and one team’s design did not function.Case 2 - The main difference in Case 2’s final demonstration was that every team competed atthe same time.
