Tutorial for distance on-line learning (by EDUMOTIVA)
3. Development of innovative online / distance learning practices tailored to the field of electronics, microcontrollers and programming education.
3.5. Multisim
Multisim (https://www.multisim.com/) is a dominant tool for design and simulate electronic circuits applied in education sector as well as in industry. It is available in online version but also can be downloaded and installed in a computer. Both versions give the ability to create complicated circuits, run simulation, watch outputs through oscilloscope and generate/store graphs.
Using Multisim Live (online version), teacher can share circuits and projects hence, students can access them easily. Can be argue that, online version is more convenient as no installation is needed, yet the standalone software is an evaluation version whose activation is limited to seven (7) days.
Despite this fact, Multisim is undoubtedly one of the best choice for teaching electronics. Teacher can create a virtual lab which promises effectiveness and pedagogical environment.
