Learning Objects

Production & Automation

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 During this process, the catalog was reviewed and content that did not meet accessibility requirements or was outdated was removed.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.

Ohm's Law: Power
Learners study animated rheostat settings that show how varying the current flow affects the amount of power that is dissipated in a series circuit. Nine review questions complete the activity.
Main Category
Construction
Op Amps 1: The Operational Amplifier
The learner will examine the basic characteristics of the operational amplifier integrated circuit and solve for Vout.
Op Amps 2: The Non-Inverting Amplifier
The learner will describe the non-inverting op-amp configuration and calculate the circuit gain.
Op Amps 3: The Inverting Amplifier
Describe the inverting op-amp configuration and calculate the circuit gain.
Main Category
Construction
Op Amps 4: The Op Amp Buffer
Understand the op-amp buffer configuration and calculate basic circuit impedance.
Main Category
Construction
Optical Encoders (Screencast)
Learners examine the internal components of an optical encoder used in automated manufacturing applications. A brief quiz completes the animated activity.
Main Category
Construction
Oscilloscope Frequency Measurements (Screencast)
Learners read a description of how an oscilloscope is used to measure the frequency of a sine wave.
Main Category
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.
