  • Abstract
    Solid State Devices subject is a tough course for the student to understand. The main reason is students are having difficulty to visualize semiconductor carriers and their behaviours. Therefore, many students are unable to cope with the subject and failed in final examination. In this paper, e-Learning techniques have been introduced to overcome the problem. There are three types of e-Learning that have been introduced such as usage of website, usage of semiconductor applets and virtual lecture series from distinguish lecturer. After implemented for a semester, the failure rate managed to be reduced to almost 64%.
