AN INTERACTIVE WEB-BASED PEDAGOGICAL TOOL FOR THE TRAINING OF ENGINEERS IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
The electrical engi neering curriculum at ÉTS includes industrial training which introduces interruption periods in the academic training. In addition, as the program contains a broad range of related courses, theoretical concepts need continuous revision and followups by students. Thus, considerable effort is required from the students and professors to review t hese concepts through various courses. As a solution to this concern, a motivating web-based pedagogical tool has been created. This tool has been used in a linear control course with traditional laboratories and lecturing. The r esults of student satisfaction obtained so far show that this tool is attractive for students and help them in their revision and learning. Moreover, it provides statistics to the professor helping the evaluation of the understanding level of the group through the entire semester. This paper presents the main features, challenges and results of the web-based pedagogical developed tool.
