Course Description
This course is about the study of physical science for non-engineering students with emphasis on basic electricity related topics. The focus of the course is not only the elementary physics of electricity; but also enlightening applications in Energy, Telecommunication, Health and Safety of electricity for the human life. Some demonstrations and hand-on experiments are also arranged to provide hand-on experiences and insights for the students on the relative topics.
Intended Learning Outcomes
CILO-1: Students will be able to describe the basic principles, concepts, theories, and language that constitute the discipline of electricity.
CILO-2: Students will be able to generalize how electricity and its technologies impact human life and society.
CILO-3: Students will be able to critically read, classify and evaluate electricity and relevant technical information from books, the popular press, journals, and other sources.
CILO-4: Students will be able to describe and tell how science is a part of human daily life with examples.
CILO-5: Students will be able to identify and relate the cultural and social dimensions of electricity science and technical applications using real world examples.
