Learning Objects

Engineering

Dive into Wisc-Online’s rich collection of learning objects — bite-sized, interactive, and designed for real learning. These modular digital tools include animations, drag-and-drop exercises, quizzes, videos, and more. You can explore topics across STEM, arts, humanities, career skills, and beyond. Each learning object is crafted to help learners actively engage with content—reviewing, applying, self-checking—in a way that’s flexible and self-paced.

Why Wisc-Online Moved to WisTech Open

In January 2026, Wisc-Online transitioned to WisTech Open to better align with current educational standards and long-term goals. During this process, the catalog was reviewed and content that did not meet accessibility requirements or was outdated was removed. Games were also taken down, and the team is evaluating the possibility of adding them back in the future with accessibility and quality standards in mind.

Construction
Oscilloscope Phase Shift Measurements (Screencast)
In this animated lesson, learners follow the steps required to read the phase shift difference in degrees between two AC waveforms.
Main Category
Construction
PID Control (Screencast)
Learners examine an animated motion-controlled robotic arm and observe the operation of a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) control that makes movements quickly without overshooting or having a steady-state error. This activity has audio content.
PLC Counter Instructions
In this animated object, learners examine the operation of up-counters and down-counters for a programmable controller. A brief quiz completes the activity.

Construction
PLC Output Modules
The learner will understand the operation and configuration of various types of PLC output modules and how they're used.
Main Category
Construction
PLC Timer Instructions
Learners examine the animated Timer-On Delay instruction and the Timer-Off Delay instruction of a PLC timer. A brief quiz completes the activity.
Parallel Capacitance: Practice Problems
Learners solve six problems determining the total capacitance of a parallel circuit. Immediate feedback is provided.
