1. One of the primary objectives of the Dassie Project is to ensure the systematic implementation of e-learning technology in the FET Colleges. It has therefore been decided to commence by incorporating e-learning methodologies in the subjects Industrial Electronics N2 and N3 in January 2003.
2. This will be accomplished in the following manner:
2.1 A dedicated fully functional e-learning facility must be used for this purpose.
2.2 The identified subject offerings are N2 and N3 Industrial Electronics. Other offerings may be included after consultation with the WCED.
2.3 e-Learning periods are time-tabled as part of the general time-table.
2.4 Learner groups are identified, selected and oriented accordingly.
2.5 The available L3 content must be used and lesson units must be prepared from the current curriculum on the L3 platform.
3. The following aspects of the Industrial Electronics syllabi have been identified as being particularly suitable for this purpose: 
     CONTENT                      GRADES
     -------------------------    -------
1.   Atomic Theory                N2 & N3	
2.   pn-Junction Theory           N2 & N3	
3.   Semiconductor Transistors    N2 & N3	
4.   Diode Applications           N2 & N3	
5.   Mosfet construction          N2 & N3	
6.   Zener Does                   N2 & N3	
7.   Bi-polar Transistors         N2 & N3
4. Visit http://www.dassie.org.za for draft lesson units which will serve as basic guidelines for e-learning.
5. The implementation progress will be closely monitored.

Your co-operation in this matter will be greatly appreciated.
