This paper presents a teaching tool for modeling
and control of dynamical systems using the project-based learning approach. This approach allows engineering and basic
science students, develop skills in programming, electronic design,
using fundamental physics to model and control complex dynamic
systems. The tool consists of a code generator that automatically
writes a program for the Arduino board in order to obtain the
mathematical model of the dynamic system from experimental
data and implement a suitable controller. This tool was tested
in the course of Identification and simulation of Systems, of the
Universidad del Cauca, proving to be a quick and easy tool for
students learning program in Industrial Automation Engineering.
