  • Abstract
    Technical knowledge should not be limited to computer scientists and engineers. Also people outside these professions should have a basic understanding of technical concepts, trends and challenges. This paper describes a module of electronics for technical journalists and shows that electronics can be successfully communicated finding a balance between simplification and accuracy.
