Abstract

There has a been a growing interest in virtual laboratories as a supplement to hardware laboratories in supporting student learning and experience. This paper focuses specifically on virtual laboratories built using the MATLAB environment and highlights some recent developments. Specifically, these virtual laboratories aim to give users an overview of the core content of an entire 1st course in control in a single virtual laboratory interface. This paper highlights two such laboratories and shows how they can be used to supplement other learning resources and activities.
