Kolb Learning Style Inventory(LSI) tests from McBer and Company will be performedto assess the students learning style (Kolb, 1984). Past assessments of the correlation between learning style andthe effectiveness of videodisc instruction in data communications(Larson, 1992) and nursing(Billings and Cobb,1992) did not demonstrate a strong link between learning style and effectiveness.

IntroductionThe Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor structure, universally referred as the “MOS”, beside formingthe basis of the working of the MOS Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) which is the backbone ofour integrated circuits, lends itself as a diagnostic tool for determining the quality of the processused in the fabrication of an integrated circuit. Therefore, it constitutes an essential part ofsemiconductor wafer fabrication as well as semiconductor device physics and deserves emphasisas an instructional tool and fundamental background status in the microelectronics education,both undergraduate and
