| Abstract | Electrical engineering service courses at the University of Kansas have been modernized over the past three years from a “one-size-fits-all” format marked by student disinterest and low attendance to multiple courses that are tailored to the needs of specific majors in the other engineering fields. A focus session in 2005 with faculty from the other engineering departments resulted in a three-hour service course on electric circuits and machines tailored to the needs of architectural and civil engineering students in fall semesters (05 to 08). A different service course on circuits, electronics, and instrumentation has been developed for mechanical and aerospace engineering students in spring semesters (06 to 09). An associated one-hour lab is offered during spring semesters. Motivational features include a grading procedure based on daily short quizzes and block exams and (2) occasional classroom presentations of student-driven mini-cases on topics such as resistance strain gauges that demonstrate applications specific to the other engineering fields. This paper both consolidates and expands Works-In-Progress papers presented at the most recent three FIE Conferences by (1) identifying the contributions of laboratory exercises, (2) providing comparative data not previously available, and (3) describing newly revised motivational features. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
