Abstract :
In this paper, the authors show an educational method based on a specific application of the quality philosophy in the development of digital electronics laboratory courses during two academic years. The authors present two main goals: to provide students with a methodology to manage problems and to start a process of continuous improvement. The level of achievement and the student evaluation show that the objectives have been fulfilled. Furthermore, the interdisciplinary character of this method allows for its application in other subjects.
