Introduction Circuits courses for non-majors typically have some of the highest enrollments of anyengineering course since they are required by so many majors. Viewed as “service courses” byboth students and instructors, these courses are often taken grudgingly by students because theyare required out-of-major courses and are often taught by adjunct instructors or GraduateTeaching Assistants. Thus, they are pedagogically a challenge to teach due to low student andinstructor motivation levels. The motivation for blending this course was to provide consistency across sections, allowfor in-class

With this change comes the responsibility to design a learning progression ofengineering content that fits within science curricula. Posing a challenge, science curricula aretypically designed from the views of Western modern science.
