In recent years, the importance of electrical energy such as a motors’ power source has become more and more in resolving global environmental problems. Thus, electrical motors are going to be widely used in not only industrial fields but also sources of motive force in electric cars. Despite this social environment, there are just a few changings in educational methods of electrical engineering about motors in university lectures. Since students learn motors control theory and technique with a textbook, it is difficult for them to understand a difference between the control method they learn in class and the control method experienced in practice after employment. Therefore, we are researching and developing an educational teaching material system that allows students to experience motor control based on motor control by the embedded system. This educational teaching material system aims to become a bridge between knowledge that can be learned by university lecture and learning of motors used in embedded systems/ electronics/mechatronics equipment.
