Efficient Courseware Management using Tektronix Oscilloscope (TBS1000B-EDU)
Designing/Creating a New Lab
Experiments
The highest ranking challenge identified in the survey was the
need to create new lab experiments. The TBS1000B-EDU
addresses this challenge in several ways. Often, determining
how to organize the lab is a major first step in starting the
creation process. The PC Courseware Editor Tool standardizes
the lab format and includes powerful editing tools for creating
and updating labs. The tool uses a familiar Windows interface
that makes it easy to insert text descriptions and instructions
either by typing the information or pasting it from a Word or
.pdf document. The tool also has a variety of quick access
buttons that include:
An image insert tool
A table insert tool
A built in equation editor which can be used to replicate
both simple and complex equations
A handy screen capture tool that lets you instantly paste a
section of your computer screen image into the application
Since the PC tool creates labs in a standard format it
becomes much easier to share content with peers who use
the same tool. You can easily open labs from colleagues and
update them to support your specific class requirements. Also
available is the web based Courseware Resource Center. At
this site you’ll be able to search for material on a variety of
subjects which includes tutorials, educational kit based labs,
industrial application notes and project case studies. You
can download content and use it as-is or modify it to suit
your needs. The TBS1000B-EDU Courseware management
solution provides a variety of options for you to use as you
develop new lab content for your curriculum.
