Module Based Multimedia Courseware Development for Power System Education

艾奥瓦州立大学和弗吉尼亚理工学院的这个合作项目的目标是提供一种电力系统工程的课程开发方法，允许灵活地适应当今快速变化的教育和工业环境，通过使用计算机来提高团队效率，建立合作团队方法，更新课程内容，引导行业参与学术课程设计，将电力系统教育扩展到其他工程领域，并为吸引最优秀的学生做出贡献。我们将通过实施模块化课程开发方法来实现这些目标，在拟议的工作中，将开发与电力系统相关的分组分组，称为基本模块。这些基本模块通过VyrEB维护和传播，每个模块都将包括一个演示文稿、一个库和至少一个基于MATLAB的模拟器。每个基本模块都是独立的，但范围足够窄，可以作为一个组成部分快速而容易地开发一套课程材料，并且模块修改很简单，从而允许根据特定需要对一个或多个模块进行调整。提供了一个明确和现实的计划，使行业参与模块开发，使行业参与模块的规范，并最终通过为员工举办的小型课程来使用模块。我们希望在电力系统教育方面提供一个新的方向，同时激发和激发潜在和现有的学生和工业工程师的兴趣，提供一个对保持高质量的电力项目和培养高学历工程师至关重要的联系。我们的方法也适用于其他工程学科，我们预计这项工作中嵌入的跨学科扩展将导致其广泛传播，同时提供将电力系统问题整合到其他曲线式ULA中的额外好处。

ECS-9619308 Phadke The objective of this collaborative project between Iowa State University (ISU) and Virginia Polytechnic Institute (VPI) is to provide a course development approach to power system engineering that allows flexibility to today's fast-changing educational and industrial environment, increases teaming efficiency via computer usage, builds on cooperative teaming methods, modernizes course content, induces industry participation in academic course design, extends power system education into other engineering fields, and contributes towards attracting the very best students. We will accomplish these goals via implementation of a modular course development approach whereby power systeni-related teaming packets, called basic modules, are developed in the proposed work. These basic modules, maintained and disseminated via the VyrEB, will each consist of a presentation, a library, and at least one MATLAB-based simulator. Each basic module is self-contained yet narrow enough to be included as a component in quickly and easily developing a set of course material, and module modification is simple, thereby allowing for module adaptation in tailoring one or more to a specific need. A clear and realistic plan for obtaining industry participation in module development is provided whereby industry is involved in the specification of the modules and ultimately their use through mini-courses held for employees. We expect to provide a new direction in power systems education that will stimulate and motivate interest simultaneously from prospective and present students and engineers in industry, providing a linkage that is critical for maintaining quality power programs and producing highly educated engineers. Our approach is also appropriate for use in other engineering disciplines, and we expect the interdisciplinary outreach embedded in this work will result in its wide dissemination, simultaneously offering the additional benefit of integrating power system problems into other curric ula.
