Objective:In order to improve the learning interest and teaching effect,it is absolutely necessary to design a physical courseware which was suitable for medical students.Taken standing wave as an example,designing and making process of the courseware was introduced in detail.Methods:Using GUI in MATLAB software,the key steps of making the courseware were given.Results:In the interface of the physical courseware,standing wave,damped vibration and forced vibration can be demonstrated real-timely after fixed parameters of the physical process.And it was testified in the course of actual teaching and autonomous learning.Conclusion:The physical courseware was designed and made by the GUI in the MATLAB software.The results are scientific and precise.Furthermore,it is not difficult to make a courseware on the base of the preliminary ability in using MATLAB.In short,GUI is not difficult to learn and it is useful for teachers to design individual courseware.
