Lesson Plan Submission – 1 Learning Outcome

NAME: Yograj SEEBALUCK INSTITUTE: MITD – MAURITIUS

TOPIC: Introduction to Logic Gates: Practical Testing with Didactic Boards for Beginners

Step 1-Prompt for competency-based Learning Outcomes (at least 2):

Here are three learning outcomes for your 90-minute asynchronous training on testing basic logic gates using a didactic
board:

1. Identify and Describe Basic Logic Gates

o Learners will recognize and describe the functions and symbols of NOT, OR, NOR, AND, and NAND
gates, and correctly locate them on the provided didactic board. (C1 - Basic Technical Understanding)

2. Conduct and Interpret Logic Gate Tests

o Learners will perform input-output tests on each logic gate using the didactic board and accurately
record and interpret the results using truth tables. (C2 - Basic Analytical Skills)

3. Troubleshoot Simple Logic Circuit Issues

o Learners will apply their understanding of logic gates and test results to identify and resolve basic
connectivity or functionality issues on the didactic board. (C3 - Fundamental Problem-Solving)

Step 2 - Prompt for competency-based Lesson Plan aligned to Learning

Outcome
(based on LO3 from above – C3 - Fundamental Problem-Solving):
