Abstract
As a final project for our electronic instrumentation practical course, non-electronic major students built their own colorimeter and measured a biochemical reaction of their choice using our recently developed Advanced Learning Platform for Analog Circuits and Automation. In this paper, we elaborate on the utilization of a final interdisciplinary project involving electronics, programming and biochemistry, and present the results and feedback from the students. Given that students considered the colorimeter project not only the most enjoyable part of our course but also highly relevant, we conclude that the colorimeter is an effective final project for our course.
