Catalog Description:
Untitled document
Introduction to BASIC language and how to use it to analyze electronic circuits. Programs will be developed on IBM-compatible computers, paralleling and validating theory presented in the first year of the electronics program. Course begins with statements, commands, and functions of BASIC and progresses to applications used in the electronic industry, including direct and alternating resistive circuits, frequencies resonate circuits, transistor biasing circuits, operational amplifiers, filters, and gate arrays. No programming experience is required.

Methods of Evaluation/Basis of Grade.
Writing: Assessment tools that demonstrate writing skill and/or require students to select, organize and explain ideas in writing. | Writing 0 - 0% |
None | |
This is a degree applicable course but assessment tools based on writing are not included because problem solving assessments are more appropriate for this course. |
|
Problem solving: Assessment tools, other than exams, that demonstrate competence in computational or non-computational problem solving skills. | Problem Solving 30 - 70% |
Homework problems, Exams | |
Skill Demonstrations: All skill-based and physical demonstrations used for assessment purposes including skill performance exams. | Skill Demonstrations 0 - 0% |
None | |
Exams: All forms of formal testing, other than skill performance exams. | Exams 30 - 70% |
Completion | |
Other: Includes any assessment tools that do not logically fit into the above categories. | Other Category 0 - 0% |
