ABSTRACT
This paper looks through different types of circuits and how troubleshooting can be done when problems occur. Each method is specific to the problem it solves and has pros and cons. Timely detecting and localizing malfunctions in circuits is crucial in the modern online world, thus preparation in advance is needed by examining the circuits and putting together testing and monitoring mechanism for out systems. Education methods and educational institutions’ approach of teaching students in this area is important, as these factors would determine students’ interest and attention. Providing modern and interactive way of teaching is a key factor for a successful educational system and maintaining students’ engagement. Accessible tools and technologies are must when it comes to easy and fast problem exploring, this is why in this paper is explored students’ behaviour and reaction to non-conventional way to teaching. Students are provided with custom web application which is used as a virtual lab for testing and exploring circuits. They are asked to fill surveys in order to understand their thoughts on the web based online learning method. By analyzing survey results and students’ performance we concluded that introducing interesting and interactive way of teaching improves their achievements and engagement in learning.

Design of Memristor-Based Combinational Logic Circuits
AbstractThis paper proposes three modified memristor ratioed logic (MRL) gates: NOT, NOR and A AND (NOR B) (i.e., ), each of which only needs 1 memristor and 1 NMOS. Based on the modified MRL gates, we design some combinational logic circuits, ...
