Learning objects for demanding themes in eletronics teaching

This work reports the application of learning objects (LOs) for Electronics teaching, specially for themes that students struggle to grasp understanding. Two themes for Electrical and Electronics Engineering are illustrated here: equipment insulation and grounding, and the relationship between nonlinear loads and harmonic distortion. Using different learning objects, students were requested to answer some questions in a survey. Initial results presented in this work indicate that learning objects can help students to understand demanding technical themes.
