An interactive computer-based training system for electrical engineering education
A computer learning network including an interactive computer-based training system (ICBTS) for electrical engineering has been developed. This article discusses the integration of instruction design, courseware delivery and students' performance analysis into one flexible system through computer-based learning. It considers the design and development of ICBTS, which is suitable for engineering students at university level.
