Abstract

This work in progress paper presents an active learning approach to teach vibrations effectively to students without any labs/hands on experiments. Computer simulation is a vital part of any course involving moving systems. Vibrations is mathematically very intensive course and often students find it very difficult and boring. To make this class interesting and engaging, the instructor integrated Simulink and Matlab in the course to help students understand the dynamics of moving parts and vibrating systems. This paper also presents results from a survey regarding how the software affected students’ learning and understanding of vibrating systems.
