摘要:Teaching basic electricity courses to engineering students from other fields is a difficult task. Several factors compound the problem such as: large student groups, lack of interest, the high level of abstract thinking required, the varied topics to be covered and the use of complex arithmetics. New approaches have been implemented to alleviate the problem. Amongst them, avoiding the use of complex numbers significantly reduces the student apprehension and passive resistance to the topic.
