The students were asked to build and troubleshoot the circuitand write a comprehensive report describing various parts of the circuit, which included atriangle waveform generator, the DC biasing and AC changing of two complementary drivingcircuits that further consist of current sources and NPN and PNP BJT drivers. Based upon thehands-on experience, the students were challenged to design circuits to meet different load needsand alternating frequencies.Many evidences from the semester have clearly shown that these hands-on projects successfullyserved as a vehicle to motivate student interests, facilitate classroom

The first – Electronic Instrumentation (the mainelectronics course taken by student outside of Electrical and Computer Engineering) – wastransitioned to flipped instruction in 2010 using the Mobile Studio as student-owned personalinstrumentation. The flipped environment evolved with basically the same instrumentationtoolset through the Fall of 2013, after which Analog Discovery became the platform of
