Implementing Motivational Features in Reactive Blended Learning: Application to an Introductory Control Engineering Course.

This paper presents a significant advance in a reactive blended learning methodology applied to an introductory control engineering course. This proposal was based on the inclusion of a reactive element (a fuzzy-logic-based controller) designed to regulate the workload for each student according to his/her activity and performance. The contribution of this proposal stands on the inclusion of elements related to motivational factors in the students. Student motivation has been widely identified as a key factor for the academic success of every teaching–learning activity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
