power engineering education cannotbe the simple duplication of the previous curriculum. Most existing courses in power engineering,such as power system, power electronics, electric machines, etc, have not updated for a longwhile and are failing to deliver relevant information in light of current industrial practices. Inaddition, complementary courses including control theory, embedded system, communications,digital signal processing, etc, are needed to strengthen student knowledge and skills withcommunication and information technologies15.

In our Electrical Engineering classes, we havebegun developing self-contained modules to train students in this area. We focus specifically indeveloping modules in machine learning including pre-processing, feature extraction andclassification. We have also embedded in these modules software to provide hands-on training.In this paper, we describe our efforts to develop an online simulation environment that willsupport web-based laboratories for training undergraduate students from Electrical Engineeringand other disciplines in sensors and machine learning.
