Participants in piloting
The course targets 3rd year undergraduate students in the Faculty of Science and Technology at Mean Chey University. 14 students attended the course in the 2020 – 2021 academic year.
Use of ALIEN services and tools
The course involved weekly theoretical sessions followed by practical assignments during which students solved problems in groups. The course took place on-line, so it was not possible to deploy the ALIEN problem-based learning laboratory. Through course activities students understood the general definitions of systems, functions, and responses in system design.
