In this webinar professor Richard Hill will explain how you can use redesigned Controls Tutorials for MATLAB and Simulink to invert the classroom and create a more active learning environment. The popular web-based tutorials now feature a modern design, enhanced content, and the latest control and analysis capabilities available in MATLAB and Simulink. Learn about the various ways in which the Controls Tutorials have been used in control system courses to enhance how students learn essential control design techniques.

The webinar will also show how you can engage students in Project-Based learning using new capabilities in Simulink for easily interfacing with low-cost target hardware such as Arduino and LEGO® MINDSTORS® NXT.

Please allow approximately 60 minutes to attend the presentation and Q&A session.
