Our revitalizedcourse differed from a traditional in-class and a complete online course in the following ways: (1)Lectures were summarized in 5-20 minute videos that include important concepts from thechapter/topic, one/two worked examples, and 3-4 homework/practice problems. These synopsisvideo lectures were made available to students in advance so that students could learn and preparefor the lectures/problem sessions.

The course begins with the fundamentals of semiconductors, solar radiation, andthe operation of solar cells. It introduces students to the architectures of different PV systems andsystem components such as batteries, inverters, solar panels, etc. It provides technical, practical,and economic considerations in designing PV systems. Upon completion of this course, studentswill be able to: 1. Demonstrate an understanding of the operating principles of solar cells; 2. Calculate the power produced by the PV module as a function of module tilt and azimuth angle; 3. Describe the basic components and main performance
