While these practices are not novel, wenoted during our workshop that these strategies are effective in improving student engagementand learning outcomes.

Use VCC = 15 V, Vg = 1 V and Rg = 1 kΩ. Design a non-inverting amplifier (choose values of R s and Rf) with an output voltage of V o = 3 V such that the power dissipated in R s and Rf is less than or equal to 0.003 W.
