Description
Summary:Engineering subjects are usually considered as difficult subjects in the university. Hence, various interesting and efficient learning methods can be implemented to increase the students' understanding. This project highlights an interactive learning system for electromagnetic and communication subjects using MATLAB programs and its graphical user interface (GUI). The system needs the user to enter appropriate parameters into blank boxes in the GUI. Then, user can obtain the result by clicking the answer button. The designed program offers varieties of engineering problems such as propagation of waves, electric field intensity, plotting electric field, dot and cross product of vectors for electromagnetic part. While for communication part consists of High Frequency (HF) analysis and digital modulation. In digital modulation part, user can generate and observe Amplitude-Shift Keying (ASK) signal, Frequency-Shift Keying (FSK) signal and other digital signals. The designed programs are user-friendly and have interactive tutorials and they can be used as a powerful tool for improving the teaching process. The way of learning will become more efficient and more interesting.
