Engineering - Electrical (55)The project is developing a modern hardware laboratory that supports a tightly coupled introductory course in power electronics and a senior design project emphasis in this area. It is adapting a highly successful pedagogical approach and model laboratory developed at a leading program in this field at the University of Minnesota. The approach uses a building-block model to uniformly analyze all commonly used converter topologies, thereby allowing coverage of even advanced topics in the introductory course. The PI is modifying the model program by adding a special emphasis on the design aspects of power electronics, an introduction to digital control, and new experiments on the emerging field of power management. The evaluation effort is using student surveys, visits by local employers, and employer surveys to assess the effect of the approach on improving student learning, on attracting students to the field, and in providing skilled graduates in this field. Dissemination is being accomplished through participation in a widely attended, national workshop program on power electronics educations and through the seminar program of a power systems consortium with 13 university and 40 industry members.

工程-电气(55)该项目正在开发一个现代化的硬件实验室，以支持电力电子技术的紧密结合入门课程和该领域的高级设计项目重点。它正在采用一种非常成功的教学方法和模型实验室，该实验室是由明尼苏达大学这一领域的领先项目开发的。该方法使用构建块模型来统一分析所有常用的转换器拓扑，从而可以在入门课程中涵盖甚至更高级的主题。PI正在修改模型程序，增加了对电力电子设计方面的特别强调，对数字控制的介绍，以及关于新兴电源管理领域的新实验。评估工作使用学生调查、当地雇主的访问和雇主调查来评估该方法在改善学生学习、吸引学生到外地工作以及提供这一领域的熟练毕业生方面的效果。传播是通过参加一个广泛参加的关于电力电子教育的全国性研讨会计划，以及通过一个由13所大学和40个行业成员组成的电力系统联盟的研讨会计划来实现的。
