For those of you who think this is off-topic for design, I humbly apologize
and beg your forgiveness.
I've been teaching electronic fabrication and second year analog and digital
design for so long I really don't have a pipeline for information other I do
for these subjects.
However, this Spring semester I'm scheduled to teach "The Science Of
Electronics" which is a general ed science lab course for those without the
briefest clue of electronics. The teaching part is easy, much easier than
trying to explain race conditions in digital logic or error currents in
opamps.
However, what I need are websites that give things like the bios with photos
of the early pioneers of the art -- Gilbert, Volta, Ampere, Henry, and the
like.
I also need websites with clear illustrations of a cutaway transistor,IC,
resistor, capacitor so that I can illustrate my lectures with examples.
Just FYI the book we are using is "Teach Yourself Electronics" (Gibilisco)
which is OK, but I'm trying to present outside materials (with proper
academic credit, of course).
My MO is to give each student a CDROM at the beginning of every semester
with the class syllabus, requirements, due dates, and all that along with
all the supplemental material that I can lay my hands on.
Pointers to websites that have animated "here's how it works" routines are
especially helpful. I've got The Silicon Zoo, an animated "Here's how a
mosfet is made and how it works" as well as an elementary "Here's how we
fabricate an IC" websites located, but any and all input is welcome.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give
