Implementation and Validation of a new Strategy of Online Practical Works of Power Electronics for Embedded Systems.”

Abstract : This paper presents the implementation and validation of a Remote laboratory for Practical Works (PWs) of power electronics for embedded systems. This work falls within the framework of an international project between several universities of the Maghreb and Europe. This project aims at the creation of a Remote practical laboratory of 3rd year Bachelor degree in Electronics and Optics e-Learning for Embedded Systems (EOLES). This article presents the topologies of the various realized practical manipulations. It also presents the description and architectures of the software and hardware platforms developed for this purpose. The presented results relate to 3 PWs of the power electronics and their discussions were made on two levels. The first is a comparison of the results of electronic measurements with the theory. The second deals with comparison of this Remote system with the same PW performed by the classical method "in-class". An analysis of the Quality Assessment of these PWs was done by L3 students. The results are discussed and show the limits of validity and reveal the strengths and weaknesses of this new educational strategy in the university pedagogical system, and the possibility of its used in other types of training and disciplines.
