function. For example, the edX course on electrical circuits listsas learning objectives: designing and analyzing circuits; lumped circuit models and abstraction;construction of simple digital gates; and measurement of circuit variables [1]. This paper is abouta course designed to enable the novice learner to begin using foundational understanding todesign simple instrumentation circuits that can sense and measure physical phenomena that areconcrete to the novice learner, such as angle, weight, temperature, relative humidity, distance,and one’s own heartbeat, pulse, and blood pressure. After completing the modules, students aregiven an opportunity to design a final project involving sensing, measurement, andinstrumentation. As a first-semester

operational amplifier design yet can be analyzed usingtraditional nodal analysis techniques. At the University of Virginia it is also a central element inthe design project for the 3rd course in our Fundamentals sequence, an ECG system with digitalsignal processing for filtering and analysis.Instrumentation amplifier experiments are a staple of many undergraduate laboratoryexperiments in electrical and computer engineering, biomedical engineering, and physics, and wehave surveyed the types of experiments that are presented. In some cases, these experimentsdiscuss the circuit within applications based around a Wheatstone bridge [7]. In most otherscenarios, an amplifier is constructed, and signals are applied at one input while grounding theother and

program, a hands-on experience is expected mostly through laboratory classes [4-6]. Theyusually enjoy laboratory classes and look forward to implementing what they had learnt in bookcourses. But most importantly, since project/lab-based learning is one of the most effective andbetter resonating methods of learning, and one that distinguishes between engineering programs[5, 6]; engineering students immediately feel that they are getting their money’s worth whenengaging in a laboratory environment. Different engineering schools struggled to convince their students with “emergency”remote laboratory classes as an alternative to in-person laboratory classes [7, 8]. As ABET has notrelaxed any accreditation requirements, it was mandated that
