While these approaches work well for students whohave already developed the visualize, plot, and predict skill sets; the initial hurdle of learningthese skills can be challenging for many first- and second-year engineering students. Traditional educational content delivery methods in these courses include textbooks,power-point presentations and in-person lecturing aided with chalk and board.

With only a two-hour session each week, instructors must carefully considerthe goals of their labs and how they fit into the broader ECE curriculum. During the COVID-19pandemic, the course was taught in hybrid mode (both online and in person) and used five labs,including Introduction to Multisim, an Electronic Thermometer, Automatic Streetlights, anIntegrator, and Modeling the Charging Behavior of a Capacitor in an RC Circuit.

This generates an electrical output which is used to measure the speed at which theyperformed the drill as well as the average time interval in between each rung.PAL is intended to improve on the existing agility ladder by providing feedback for the user.
