# Introduction

Electronics is fundamental to modern life. Using a variety of teaching material, including videos, self-assessment questions (SAQs) and interactive activities, this free course will show you how electronic devices and systems pervade everything we do, and explain some of the fundamental ideas underlying their operation.

Note that the interactive activities have been designed to work in the Firefox and Chrome browsers, so you will need to use one of these browsers if you want to access the interactive content.

This OpenLearn course is an adapted extract from the Open University course T212 Electronics: sensing, logic and actuation.
