Practice of Introductory Education for Department of Mechanical Engineering in College of Technology Using Wind Turbine Paper Model

Abstract

In recent years, a decrease in motivation of learning, has become a problem in the College of Technology. In order to resolve this problem, measures are needed from the lower grades of the higher education institutions. However, to educate both theory and actual practice at the same time for student who have less machining and processing technical skills is difficult in introductory education. In this study, we developed the experimental teaching tools for college student, using wind turbine paper model and wind turbine analysis software. The teaching tool provides the both theory and actual practice for introductory education. Currently, we are using the tools in the experiment of Mechanical Engineering first and second grade in the College of Technology.
