Educational experience of computer and network based teaching approach to electrical engineering curriculums

Abstract

The focus of the present work is on introducing the computer and network based teaching approach to electrical engineering curriculums. These techniques not only help to expand the teaching contents and improve the learning effects, but also can cultivate the self-learning of the students and construct the interactive learning environments. The education experiences of computer simulation of adjustable speed AC drive system curriculum, the web based system simulation platform for automatic control curriculum and FTP site based microcontroller course design were presented and analyzed as examples. The practice results provide an overview of the teaching approach. It is expected that this approach can be helpful to the education study and reform on the engineering curriculums of higher education level.
