Information for instructors
This page contains information for instructors who want to use Feedback Systems to teach courses on feedback and control. In addition to the links on this page, a set of course syllabus suggestions has been compiled that provides suggestions for how to use the text.
Course Organization
Feedback Systems can be used for a wide variety of courses and has been organized to allow different material to be included depending on the audience. Some common configurations (click on the links for a more detailed description):
- 10 week engineering course for seniors/first year grad students
- 15 week engineering course for seniors/first year grad students
- 10 week graduate course for non-majors (state space)
- 15 week graduate course for non-majors
Course Materials
We are assembling lecture materials and homework problems that can be used for courses, in conjunction with the textbook.
- Lecture Index - lectures that go along with topics in the text
- Additional Exercises - list of all exercises on the wiki, organized by chapter
If you have additional materials that you would like to contribute to the wiki, please contact Richard Murray.
