Abstract :
The web-based learning is rapidly emerging as an alternative to the traditional classroom. Today´s students have a visual learning ability and skill with technological resources towering previous generations. Thus, the use of an open source simulation tool for electric machines in web platform made in the Model-View-Controller pattern is an appeal to help teachers and students to learn the dynamic behaviour motors in undergraduate and graduate degree in Electrical Engineering.
