| Abstract |
The few lessons on power electronics inside the electrical engineering curriculum are to be optimized for obtaining best educational results and also for attracting the necessary number of specialists who are the researchers of tomorrow. The proposed method combines in an integrated package a well-documented lecture on the basics, a self-learning program as a computer guided and computer aided seminar including computer simulation capability to build a bridge to the tutored laboratory practical covering the lecture topics and running parallel with the lectures. The lab practical shall be the final step enabling the students to do some own measurements while obtaining the required data and get practical experience. Having understood the basics and being able to base upon the just previously acquired knowledge is essential for the efficient learning process of every student, therefore a constant check on the knowledge progress of the student becomes necessary, not only during the laboratory practical. |
