Traditional Lecture vs Problem-Based Learning in Electrical Engineering Education

1.What is your opinion on traditional lecture-based learning vs. problem-based learning? Which practice is most beneficial in your eyes for a student interested in an electrical engineering discipline?

2.How has the electrical engineering discipline changed over the years?

3.When first practicing as an engineer was there a cultural language you had to work to understand? In other words is there a difference in the way you speak to a fellow engineer and some other person?

4.If you had the ability to change something to improve the field of electrical engineering, what would it be? How would you do it?

5.What do you think is the most common misconception about the field of electrical engineering?

6.What has been the most difficult aspect of your work?

Yes this is true now Electical emginneering is no longer just electrics Its electronics plus electrics but in the field its still module, replacement bourd, replacement

In the design area the electronics module is an empty box with input

The electronics engineer designs that box of electronics and has to know about ac thoery together with power devices, mico opamps and programming

Back on the bench if they even bother these days which nine out of ten they dont "All part of this magnificent throw away age, the waste age i call it " The electronics engineer is the person that initiates the service or repair of that bourd to component level if it can be done

However these days they dont anymore which highlights how wastefull society has become how extravagant companies have become and also indicates why enginneers these days lack the practical skills which so many electrical electronics engineers used to have

Also why the level of unemployment is so high Not down to engineers as such but down to companies who wont provide that backup anymore

In fact as some one quoted but to the wrong person a few days ago the" technical salesperson "not realising I think that some people here have had more hands on experiance in most enginnering related fields than he is ever likley to have in his entire lifespan or is ever likley to see again inclusive mechanical encapsulated within this as well

Quite a sad day I think looking at trade and Industry as a whole and the way companies co operate very sad day

1.

When parallel resistors are of three different values, which has the greatest power loss?
A. The smallest resistance
B. The largest resistance
C. They have the same power loss.
D. Voltage and resistance values are needed.

Answer: Option A


dainik bhasker

The answer lies in which resistor will dissipate the most heat so the answer is A since the resistor that will pass the most current will be the smallest

Mark Harrington

If you wanted to be exact the voltage drop acoss all is the same only the current varies

Parallel resistors will have the same voltage across them -- P=E**2/R -- therefore, because 'E' is the same for all resistors in parallel, the greatest power will be dissipated in the resistor with the lowest resistance.

General questions for electrical engineers include questions pertaining to your degree or degrees, your employment history, and your reasons for pursuing your career. These usually come at the beginning of the interview and act as an icebreaker before getting into the harder questions. Some top opening electrical engineering interview questions include: What is your background?Why did you decide to become an electrical engineer?What are your strengths and weaknesses?What are your short term and long term goals?What motivates you to succeed?What do you think separates you from other candidates?What electrical engineering computer software are you comfortable with?Where did you get your electrical engineering degree and which classes did you excel in?What qualities do you have that would be helpful in this job?What is your specialty within electrical engineering? To prepare for these questions, it’s important that you reflect on your reasons for pursuing a career in electrical engineering as well as your interest in the particular job that you’re applying for. You should also study your resume and review your education and employment history so that you’re ready to answer questions about your background. Try to think about what makes you different from other candidates and which special skills or qualities you can bring to the workplace.Ekeeda - First Year Engineering Courses and Videos Online
