Computers are increasingly being used in the classroom. An investigation of several educational techniques in a computer-based version of an electronics course is reported. We found that, with a lesson for teaching virtual equality, students learned faster when using a general to specific approach. Students using a simulation of a Schmitt trigger before a qualitative analysis of the circuit performed the analysis faster and with less difficulty than the group performing the analysis first and then exploring the circuit with the simulation. Given a sizable amount of optional material in a computer lesson, most of the electronics students used all of the optional material.
