USING THE PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING APPROACH IN AN INDUSTRIAL SYSTEMS SIMULATION COURSE

The development of qualified multidisciplinary-educated engineers is complicated task. At the same moments this is very responsive task. Most of the current social life has for a background the different engineering solutions, support and work. Education of engineers for a today needs is under increasing pressure for non-breakable adaptation to new technical and technological realities. The old classical approaches still have their place in the education process but there are many new way to develop flexible, adaptive and well educated engineers. One of this ways is the problem-based learning approach. This paper is presenting the experience from preparation a course for control systems simulations based on the problem based learning. The course covers systems elements design, implementation, simulation and validation.
