“Laboratory”: A project-based learning example on power electronics

Abstract

This paper presents the experience of applying project-based learning (PBL) on power electronics, in the context of two official Master degree courses. The discussion covers both strategic and implementation topics, from the initial conception of the Master and the subject, to practical implementation issues.The final conclusions show recommendations from experience for enhancing the learning experience in coming editions of the subject, and may also be useful for other academics.
