MATLAB-Based Interactive Tool for Teaching Electromagnetics [Education Corner]

摘要

Presents information on the MATLAB-Based Interactive tool for teaching electromagnetics. This was created for a second-year university-level electromagnetics course using a MATLAB-based graphical user interface (GUI). It aims to improve learning outcomes, reduce staff workload, and engage online students through blended learning. The tool allows for the random generation of inputs for a large number of problems, provides automatic feedback when the answers are incorrect, and generates a report when the answers are correct. Examples of electrostatics, magnetostatics, dynamic fields, and transmission lines problem sets are presented.
