IntroductionThe objective of this paper is to provide examples of circuits and systems that the electricalengineering technology students simulate with various software simulation packages. Specificcourses have been chosen to examine the effect that the software has on student learning ofcircuit analysis and design concepts.Software simulation has been used in the electrical engineering technology program at UPJ sincethe early 1970’s. Early circuit software was executed on an IBM 1130 mainframe computer thatrelied on hand-coded information for the circuit, punched computer cards, and submission of thecard deck to the computer operator for the

The first offering was in fall of 2011-12 as a special topics course. Itwas taught as a flipped class in winter quarter 2012-13, entered the course catalog in 2013-14,and has been taught online three times since winter 2013-14. Putting the course online servesseveral needs. First, it provides the means to combine students from Drexel’s main campus withthose on a satellite campus in New Jersey, and have these students actively interact. Secondly, itgives students in a two-quarter co-operative education cycle a chance
