Basic computer-aided learning for a control engineering course
To allow for variation in the rate at which similarly qualified students accept new material, a computer-based aid has been developed to provide self-paced learning as an adjunct to a formal course in Control Systems. The first stage of the courseware is described and student reaction is surveyed.
