AI-assisted control systems learning project

AI-assisted control systems learning project
California State University, Channel Islands
Vedang Chauhan, an instructor at California State University Channel Islands (CSUCI), has developed an AI-assisted learning module for a Feedback Control Systems course. This project introduces a self-guided, AI-supported learning approach aimed at promoting active engagement and deeper understanding in technical subjects. The method centers on structured, prompt-based exploration using AI tools like ChatGPT, where students begin with guided prompts, receive explanations and step-by-step walkthroughs, and then customize the interaction based on their individual learning styles and pace. The AI functions as a supportive peer tutor, helping students clarify concepts, develop problem-solving strategies, enhance critical thinking, and build confidence. The approach concludes with a student-completed problem and a short assessment to evaluate understanding without AI assistance. As a demonstration of this model, the topic of design via state-space methods in control systems is used to illustrate how AI can improve comprehension of abstract and mathematical concepts while fostering ethical and independent learning.

Assignment Information Video Production using Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tools

Assignment Information Video Production using Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tools
California State University, Channel Islands
Ryan Murphy, Assistant Professor of Business Communication at California State University Channel Islands, created an assignment information video using HeyGen (an AI avatar video creation tool) and ChatGPT.

Video instructions keep students engaged and they can be replayed as many times as necessary. Acknowledgement to Dr. Stephen Lind of the University of Southern California who presented this concept at the Association for Business Communication Western Regional Conference (Spring 2024), where he shared both practical outcome of AI videos like this as well as technical instructions for creating them.
