The resources used in the Training Laboratory provided an
excellent opportunity for use in pre-laboratory activities. In
order for students to have a good understanding of the
equipment, troubleshooting and other laboratory skills, prelaboratory
activities such as quizzes were designed. These
activities are primarily targeted at first and second year
students. Integrating the Training Laboratory with the prelaboratory
activities also provided awareness to students that
such resources exist and can be used. Five subjects use the
resource for pre lab activities; three electronics related subjects,
one digital hardware subject, and one control subject.
