MEDIU

2.2.1

Describe the processes, procedures, and mechanisms for curriculum development. How are the academic and administrative staffs involved in this process?

The curriculum development process can be divided into five main steps:

1) Needs assessment.

2) The planning session.

3) Content development.

4) Pilot delivery and revision

5) Finalising the completed curriculum package.

The steps are managed and supervised by committees that are composed from experts in the related domain and supported by the administrative officers of the faculty.

These committees present their output to the faculty for further discussion and endorsement.

After getting the approval of the faculty, the draft will be presented to the Senate committee of curriculum for further deliberation and endorsement of the Senate. The approved curriculum will then be submitted to MQA for assessment and recommendation and the approval of the Minister of Higher Education .

2.2.2

What are the various teaching and learning methods used in curriculum delivery to achieve the programme learning outcomes? Describe them.

Teaching and learning will be through a mixture of lectures, tutorials, seminars, practical classes, projects, supervised individual and group written work, and internship. Much of the teaching materials will be provided in electronic form, with ALIM (Advanced Learning and

Interactive Management System). The student will progress from being guided towards the relevant material to become more independent as they progressively adapt self-learning and achieve the program learning outcomes. Electronic and online teaching, learning, and assessment will be used where practical and appropriate.

Synopsis:

This course discuss on the graphical relationship between displacement, velocity and acceleration diagram inconstant acceleration motion. Standard equation is then used to consider the analytical relationship. It covers statics, the concept of equilibrium, condition of equilibrium and free body diagram. The force acting in an object is related to the resulting acceleration hence the motion of the object using Newton’s law.

Friction is also considered bring the analysis close to a realistic one.

Synopsis:

This course provides an introduction to the basic techniques of circuit’s analysis and electronic circuits design. The first part of the units introduces electrical components and the fundamental laws that govern the behaviour of an electrical circuit. Methods of analysis will be include the use of phasors for sinusoidal responses and Laplace transforms for more general case where there may be initial energy storage and where there is need to determine circuit transient behaviour. In the second part of the course, a variety of electronic circuits based on integrated circuit amplifiers will be introduced.
