ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE BASED ON MATLAB AND ITS GRAPHIC USER INTERFACE (GUI)
Abstract
This paper presents educational software
based on MATLAB and a Graphical User Interface (GUI). This educational software
consists of three subjects; electromagnetic, communication engineering and
power engineering. MATLAB m-files are developed based on the requirements in
the subjects. Then, its GUI are developed and integrated with the m-files for
ease of use. In this software, user is able to visualize the subjects from the
plots, graphs, and images and obtain the answer automatically. User also does
not need to install MATLAB in his/her Personal Computer (PC) because this
software is developed with standalone program which allow user to use the
software without installing Matlab. This software can be used by lecturers as
teaching aid and self-learning materials among students, thus, help user to
achieve better understanding on electrical engineering subjects. It is also
found that this software has obtained positive feedback from lecturers and
students as it attracts students in learning the subjects.
