Abstract

The utilization, availability and capability of computer interfaces for teaching students were discussed. For this purpose, the use of MATLAB and its toolboxes is quite common in universities as it allows students to explore various aspects of the course material in greater depth. MATLAB environment was used to add graphical user interface (GUI) which allows for easy interactive pole/zero placement, relocation and/or deletion which was a mystery to students earlier. The benefits have been tremendous as students now spend several hours exploring a phenomenon or effect that might have received only cursory interest using traditional techniques.
