Development of interactive books for Control Education

The field of education is subject to continuous changes with the addition of new methods and techniques for teaching and learning. These innovative methods and techniques allow educators to improve their teaching tasks. Within the field of engineering, interactive tools stand out as one of the techniques with greater impact; they have been established as an excellent complement to teaching. On the other hand, the use of ebooks are becoming more and more widespread: they are portable, accessible, and offer the possibility of enriching the text with other digital content as an added advantage. In addition, such books are also being presented today as a magnificent teacher support tool. This paper aims at researching current applications that allow for the merging of these two educational resources, trying to include interactive tools in ebook format. It contains an exhaustive study of the steps for creating an ebook based on the theory of automatic control, and a wide battery of interactive tools associated with the contents of the book. We will try to show an ebook sample including interactive tools so as to facilitate the work of the teacher and student learning.
