Introduction
This Teaching Aid is addressed to teachers and schools which
offer any kind of electronic courses (i.e. computer maintenance, machine
control, radio and tv repair, etc). It provides the basic knowledge for
technicians as well as it can be used to run basic courses at technical
colleges.
Digital Teaching Aid is a teaching module made for teachers. It
is a ready - made lesson preparation and not a textbook. Therefore, you (the
teacher) should already have some background knowledge on digital electronics.
This module gives you all the material you need to run a course in basic digital
electronics.
The module is divided into lessons, each lesson is headed by a
lesson plan followed by boardscripts, worksheets, and handouts. It also contains
three evaluations which you can use as tests/exams or as advanced exercises. The
lesson plans are not only containing the contents of the lesson, but also gives
you the objectives and suggested methods and ways to carry out the lesson. The
following informs you about the purpose of every lesson plan column:
Time |
- The 'Time' column is still blank, it is up to you to decide
how much time you would like to spend on each topic. The average time per lesson
is approximately 90 minutes and 45 minutes for the review exercise (Worksheet).
|
Method |
- The 'Method' column suggests a sample of teaching methods.
Lesson plan 1 and 2 are already filled up to give you an example on how to use
this column. I recommend the use of abbreviations, the meaning of every
abbreviation is given at the bottom of every method column. |
Topic |
- The 'Topic' column gives you a brief description of the
contents of every lesson. Feel free to add or drop some topics. Every topic is
handled in the following boardscript pages. |
Way |
- The 'Way' column suggests a sample of teaching tools. Lesson
plan 1 and 2 are already filled up. The explanation for the abbreviation used is
given at the bottom of every way column. The boardscript pages of every lesson
contain examples (EX) and hands on (HO) exercises. The HO's should be carried
out by the students during the lesson. |
Remark |
- The 'Remark' column provides you with space for additional
information. (i.e.: Where can I find the transparency/picture which I decided to
use, or: What is the filename of the demo program which I already prepared)
