theresistance of resistors, the current in a closed electrical circuit, the voltage drop across resistors,light emitting diodes (LEDs), and batteries. Using a signal generator and an oscilloscope,students learned the difference between dc and ac voltage signals. Ohm’s law was also coveredin this module. An attempt was made to determine the speed of sound with the signal generator,oscilloscope, a loudspeaker, a microphone, and a meter ruler. In addition to using DMM tomeasure the resistance of resistors, the students learned how to use color codes to determine thevalue of the resistance of resistors. Figure 4 shows an example of the color code used for thisexercise. Figure 5 shows an example of schematic electrical diagrams that students worked on.This
