| description | Electronic circuit and system (ECS) course introduces students to understand the circuit and
system operation as well as using tool and technique to solve engineering problem related to
circuitry. This course is compulsory offered for both electrical and non – electrical engineering
students. The non – electrical engineering student will find this course challenging and difficult
to understand especially when it involves circuit design and analysis. Therefore, transforming
the learning environment from traditional to innovative approach could help in the
enhancement of student learning. Therefore, this paper is presented to assess student
reflection after the implementation of hands – on learning towards improvement of content of
knowledge and motivation in learning about active filter in ECS course. Students are required
to design an active filter using the specification given, verified using simulation tool and doing
the actual testing in laboratory. A qualitative study is conducted via survey questionnaire and
the student reflections were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results shows an improvement
in student content of knowledge and motivation to learnt after the implementation of the hands
– on learning. The outcome shows in this study suggest the necessity of including the hands
– on learning to maximize student engagement for students as well as achieving the course
learning outcome. |
