Students with special needs often require special teaching tools; physical and sensory impaired students can benefit from using computer-aided assessment methods that address their fully developed abilities. Easy-E is an assessment software tool designed to improve the learning abilities in the field of basic electronics. The friendly user interface provides easy access to all sections (circuits with diodes, resistors, capacitors, operational amplifiers). Theoretical presentations, schematics, waveforms, and transfer characteristics are available and the user can change the values of components and signal parameters. The acquired knowledge can be tested, in the Test section. The tests cover the entire area, and consist of ten multiple choice questions. The proposed software tool is a standalone application with low computational requirements, which can be used for both online and offline learning. Due to the fact that our tool offers theoretical fundamentals, active learning through solved problems and final testing, it can be seen as a complete instrument for home schooling in the field of basic electronics.
