Integrating AI and Simulation for Teaching Power System Dynamics: An Interactive Framework for Engineering Education

摘要

Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially cloud platforms and large language models (LLMs), is changing how engineering is taught by making learning more interactive and flexible. However, in electrical engineering and energy systems, students often find power system dynamics difficult to understand because the concepts are abstract, math-heavy, and there are limited opportunities for hands-on practice. This paper presents an AI-based interactive learning framework that combines simulation with intelligent feedback to improve understanding and student engagement. The framework has three connected parts: an AI layer that provides explanations and guidance, a simulation layer that models system behavior, and a user layer that allows students to interact with the system in real time. These parts work together in a continuous loop where students explore how the system behaves, change parameters, and receive feedback based on the results. The paper also provides a step-by-step process to help educators design and apply AI-supported learning environments, including breaking down concepts, using simulations, and assessing performance. This method helps students learn through practice and better understand how ideas from class apply to real power systems. It also provides a practical way to improve electrical engineering education and helps students get ready to use AI tools carefully and responsibly in engineering.
