Title AI-Enabled Chatbot for Circuit Analysis (EE2101), Focusing on Laplace Transform and Time/Frequency Domain Analysis
Summary Electronics courses often contain many concepts that are foreign and non-intuitive. Such difficulty often leads to high dissatisfaction among course takers and discourage them from pursuing related disciplines as future career, despite its lucrative potential.

Learning such new concepts is not too disparate from learning a new language. A method through which a student can engage and practice on the new concepts is critical for the courses’ and students’ success. In this regard, one can learn much from Duolingo’s approach in its best-selling language learning app, which draws a stark contract against the NTU courses in terms of ‘user’ engagement. Most critically, Duolingo is structured with inner-competition and rewards such that a regular Duolingo user will visit the app twice a day whereas NTU courses are visited less frequently. It is possible to reshape electronic courses, such as EE2101, onto a Duolingo-like structure to enhance engagement and performance of students.

In this project, Circuit Analysis (EE2101) materials will be retrofitted into a chatbot and an application. The project will attempt to address some of the core questions on electronics pedagogy:
1) Which concepts do students most struggle with? ,
2) Can daily “refresher” help students’ performance in a quantifiable manner?
3) What are ideal duration and frequency in learning new electronics concept?, and
4) How can we leverage centuries of linguistic teaching methodologies for electronics teaching?

The project will mainly focus on topics of Laplace Transform and Time/Frequency Domain Analysis.
