Abstract :
Seeing successive decline over the years in the understanding of core concepts of circuit theory and consequent inefficiency of its application to circuit analysis problems, it was deemed necessary to conduct some experiments to aid the learning of this subject. This article outlines the steps taken, the methodology adopted and the results garnered in this experimentation with cooperative and collaborative learning.
