Abstract :
A MATLAB GUI is presented which is used to help students learn to design controllers in the frequency domain. It complements the author´s two previous GUIs for plotting and identification of systems in the frequency domain. It also incorporates the concept used in the “electronic calculator that makes students think” to assist learning. Positive student feedback affirms that the GUI has helped their understanding.
