Abstract :
A studio based approach to control education is presented. Lectures, discussion, simulation and experiments are all combined in a single classroom setting. This allows the students to immediately implement new theoretical concepts and gives the instructor immediate feedback on the effectiveness of the lectures. Example simulation modules and experiments are presented, as well as plans for future experiments
