General Information

Overview

In this project-based learning unit, you will analyse and design systems and components that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. You will investigate the construction and operational characteristics of various DC and AC electrical machines, analyse machine protection and control schemes and select and specify machines for particular applications. Furthermore, you will learn about components and materials for electrical machines, and use power electronics to optimise the performance of energy conversion. You are expected to learn and work individually and in teams to complete projects, to develop interpersonal and technical communication skills and to prepare professional documentation, including problem solutions, electrical designs and project reports. Distance education students are required to have access to a computer, to make frequent use of the Internet. In this unit, you must complete compulsory practical activities. Refer to the Engineering Undergraduate Course Moodle site for proposed dates.

Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from In class feedback

Feedback

Students appreciated the unit's highly practical lab exercises and team projects, which enhanced their understanding of the concept's real-world applications.

Recommendation

This good practice should be maintained.

Feedback from Student Unit Evaluation Dashboard

Feedback

Students have difficulty understanding unit requirements clearly.

Recommendation

The unit requirements and instructions on how to access additional resources should be explained in greater detail in the welcome video at the start of the term. Additionally, students should be encouraged to attend lectures and tutorials for further information and clarification.

Feedback from Student Unit Evaluation Dashboard

Feedback

Students evaluated low in useful learning materials.

Recommendation

Organise the additional learning materials into a clear, easy-to-navigate index on the Moodle page. Highlight key resources in weekly announcements so students know what’s available and where to find it.
