DEVELOPMENT OF THE JSME CAI SYSTEM

Abstract A new series of computer aided instruction (CAI) system has been proposed and developed from the publication committee of JSME (the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers). It is intended to improve the university education. The traditional education of control system is considered not clear how it is used to real application. On the contrary, computers are powerful and important tool for analysis and real application. Recently personal computer has become popular and less expensive. This CAI system is intended to use a personal computer and a large computer monitor in the university classroom to solve the problem and to demonstrate the solution graphically to the students. The students are expected to see the solution on real time and to understand how to use the theory and its application.
