instrument front panels are used to control and read theinstruments by means of remote control. To avoid potentially serious student mistakes e.g.overloading a component the teacher can preset limits to the source voltages which areaccessible to students. The teacher can also restrict student circuits by, for example, dictatingminimum impedance in loops created with aid of the components provided. The number ofnodes provided on the virtual breadboard is adequate for experiments in undergraduateeducation. The laboratory is always open and can be used by registered students and guest usersalike. The time-sharing scheme used allows simultaneous access for up to 8 client PCs. A 56kbit/s modem and MS Internet Explorer are all that are required. The

As an added benefit, the wires were always returned to where they belonged, andthe students developed a sense of responsibility for taking care of the lab. As a matter offact, the morale and attitude of the students improved. The students did not have anymore equipment available than before the re-organization, but now it could be easilyfound.Then there was the matter of getting rid of some of the old equipment that was in the lab.There was reason to believe that certain items were just stored in there.

The instructors of courses observed which topics the studentswere struggling with and developed micro-lectures to cover those topics.Literature ReviewThe idea of micro-learning and presenting the content in micro-units was first introduced in 1980as “micro-teaching” (Hug, T., 2005). Research conducted by (Shail, M. S., 2019) indicates thatmicro-learning prevents learners from being overloaded with information and can improve theirretention capacity. Due to the limitation of the working memory of learners, micro-learningrequires minimal effort from individuals to master the content, and it provides dense and yetfocused topics in fun and engaging fashion (Jomah, et al, 2016).

Therefore, the initial designwas dependent on a “script overseer” such as a graduate teaching assistant with programingexperience, to run the applications via accessing the source code. For data mining to occur, theapplication necessitates access to the Canvas LMS. This means that the user would have to inputa bearer access token, and URL course specific values to the source code.

The next section addresses the concept of curriculum alignment andhow impromptu design problems can resolve the significant curricular gap in traditionalengineering programs.2. Design education and curriculum theoryThe concept of curriculum alignment provides a sound rationale for integrating design across thecurriculum. The idea that curriculum, instruction, and assessment should be conceived as partsof a cohesive whole (or system) forms the core principle of curriculum alignment. Each of thesethree component parts – curriculum, instruction, and assessment – must be viewed relative to theothers if curriculum alignment is to take place. In this

EngineeringAppropriate Engineering is a holistic approach to engineering design that incorporates social,political, cultural, environmental, economic and human empowerment issues as central, alongwith technical considerations, to the process. For example, many rural inhabitants in much ofAfrica have low incomes and cannot afford to buy batteries for their portable radios. However,hand-cranked radios, which use a mainspring to drive a little dynamo, are highly functional anddesired because of their low cost. These radios allow a small village to “zip back into theInformation Age with a twist of the wrist.”9Many Appropriate Engineering principles have evolved from the work of British economist E.

The students were asked to group themselvesin teams of not more than four students (preferably not from the same high school). Then overthe next three weeks of the camp, each group was to submit their “surfing the net” scavengerhunt findings.

Since the early 1970’s, this PBL approach has been successful inmedical education at many institutions. There are very few engineering programs that have fullyimplemented a similar model. Are we hampered from adopting more PBL teaching models inEngineering programs because of our fundamental conceptual model of what is an engineeringeducation, and, ultimately, what is an engineer? The System ParadigmWithin the existing structure at most engineering schools, students recognize that each coursecarries equal weight towards their degree, and each course gives them an independent grade thatis equal in value towards their degree and for
