Learning objects are fundamental elements for the development of the distance learning. These objects can access technological resources in a more interactive way to better engage students and improve the achievement of curricular skills. The creation and distribution of these learning objects are eased by using a free and open source software, such as Scilab, which has most of Matlab s features, for example, an equivalent to Simulink called Xcos. This work consists on the development of two learning objects about modeling, simulating and controlling an inverted pendulum and a DC motor using full-state feedback, a PID controller and some graphical resources available on Scilab.
