    This module is all about digital equipment in our life (radio, mp3, wii, audio, computer, etc) by EEE. There are 3 lectures for this module. I personally find the contents interesting and useful, but is heavy-content. I have never attended a single lecture and have listened to less than 50% of the recordings.

    I suggest you to take this module only if you are interested in digital surroundings and is confident in you memory skills. Having an IT background or knowledge is a very big plus point, since some of the questions may based on speed and units of certain stuffs, which benefit EEE and CEE students. Students from other school may have to spend more effort to score this module.

    Finals consists of 50% 40 MCQ questions. There are 2 CA assessments, total 50% quiz 30 MCQ questions. I scored 29/30 and 22/30 without studying much (flip flip 1 night before). For finals, I spent only 3hours studying right before the exam (as I have another core on the same day). However, I think i got 35/40 during my finals (I think the paper is easy that year). This still doesn't secure an A due to my cui second quiz hence I MC it.

    Bell-curve is really steep here. Hence in order to secure an A, get at least 27/30 for each quizzes and memorize thoroughly for finals. However, many people S/U this module for its time-consuming contents, hence you may get better grade than you have expected. When I went for finals, there are 2 almost empty rows right beside me – many MC this paper.).

  2. Grading
    CA - ALL MCQ (2 x 25% = 50%)
    Final exam - ALL MCQ (50%)

    Important
    This is an EEE mod and its ALL ABOUT digital equipments, from computers to camcorders. MY EEE senior told me that its extremely easy for EEE students so those who are not from EEE, you NEED to really study in order to score.

    Comment: I took this course because of all the assessments are in MCQ format which I believe easy to score. However I found out that this course is very tough and content based. You got to really memorise a lot of stuff and must have interest in IT. There is no tutorial in this course and all the papers are closed book.

    Verdict: If you really have interest in IT then I recommend you guys to take. Plus if you are the kind of student who like to memorise, I would also recommend this course. However if you are not the kind of students that I mentioned then I dont recommend this course.
