Multimedia teaching tools for an introductory circuit analysis course

The paper discusses the use of computer technology as a tool for increasing access to and quality of our electrical engineering program at the California State University, Sacramento. Using readily available software and Internet access, a comprehensive set of lecture materials, student exercises and basic laboratory demonstrations are produced in electronic format in order to promote learning, reinforcement and consistency. While the central focus of this work is on learning, the convenience aspect of this method of delivery has proven to be effective tool for increasing performance as well as enrolment.
