“…Therefore, different instructional methods have been proposed [1]. For example, integrated and creative-oriented project-based learning has been proposed for teaching both introductory [2], [3] and advanced electronics topics [4], [5]. Meanwhile, UC Berkeley has proposed an introductory electronics course that focuses on "design", "circuits", "technology trends" and "physical realization" [6].…”

This paper presents an integration of a wireless sensor network design project in an introductory course about circuits and systems. In the project, students will design a wireless sensor network that constitutes of sensors, for a creative surveillance application. Through a versatile project vehicle, project-oriented learning modules, a comprehensive assessment strategy and public learning communities, students can learn contemporary concepts of circuits and systems from the system perspective, as well as develop ability to design a basic electronic system.
