Author :

Abstract :
Summary form only given. The current methods of teaching many electronic courses do not reinforce the design and application in the teaching/learning process. The outcome of existing methods is engineering graduates who learn a lot of theory and definitions but little or no knowledge of application and design. Therefore, in the present engineering job market, it would be very difficult for them to be hired without sufficient design background. The top-down method shows the possibility of integration of design and into the most electronic courses. In the top-down method, the starting point is a design and application of an electronic product directly related to the course
