| Methods and Techniques | 1. Theoretical Explanation: Topics are explained theoretically within the course. Students listen to lectures to understand the fundamental concepts of programming and the logic of algorithms. 2. Practical Activities: Students, under the guidance of the course instructor, practice various examples to put the theoretical concepts into practice. They strive to achieve specific learning outcomes. 3. Step-by-Step Solution: Problems encountered are solved step-by-step, explaining how each step works. This method helps students gain a deeper understanding of the topics. 4. Real-Life Examples: Real-life examples and problem scenarios are presented to enhance understanding of the topics. This allows students to see how to apply what they have learned in practice. 5. Lab Handouts and Quizzes: Student progress is assessed and understanding of the topics is monitored through weekly lab handouts and pre-exam quizzes. |

Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to teach students the basic principles, components and operating principles of electronic circuits. The course will examine the structure, properties and behavior of basic electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes and transistors in the circuit. Students will gain the ability to design and analyze simple circuits using Ohm's Law, Kirchhoff's Laws and basic circuit analysis methods.
At the end of the course, students will understand the operating principles of direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) circuits; and will be familiar with basic laboratory tools (oscilloscope, multimeter etc.) used in the measurement and analysis of electronic circuits. This course aims to create a solid infrastructure that will prepare students for topics such as advanced electronics, digital circuits and microcontroller applications.
