This project was conducted to provide an online learning platform for the module EE2003 for students to comprehend the concepts of semiconductors. To cultivate a new learning method, as well as to make studying more interesting and interactive, two web applications with information-graphics were designed and developed to determine how electromagnetic field of semiconductors are affected by different factors. The web applications were implemented through HTML5, CSS and JAVASCRIPT coding, and will be uploaded onto NTULearn. This project provides students with a clear and efficient method of learning with easy navigation through different tabs of the web application; Information-graphics, Equations, Questions, Take-away. During the course of the project, problems encountered include the implementation of information-graphics through Javascript. These problems hindered the progress of the project but were successfully resolved. Additional improvements to the web application as mentioned in the report are to be carried out so as to allow students to go in depth and fully grasp the concepts of semiconductors.
