چکیده
Existing educational resources for control systems have been refined and new resources have been developed. A new LabVIEW based Control Systems Analysis Toolkit (CSAT) has been developed to assist lecturers in teaching control engineering and students to understand theoretical concepts; specific manual and activity exercises for the CSAT have been developed. An existing LabVIEW based Process Control Virtual Laboratory (PCVL) educational software has been refined together with a detailed hands-on laboratory activity manual. Existing Simulink exercises have been refined, specific video tutorials for the Simulink exercises have been developed. Evaluations have been conducted indicating positive impact, and the resources have been made available to the control systems community. All the resources: Simulink video tutorials; The control systems analysis toolkit (CSAT); The process control virtual lab (PCVL) can be found and be downloaded from the "Resources" menu under the following link: www.ilough-lab.com
