European Virtual Learning Platform for Electrical and Information Engineering

Description

Project consortium4 European countries, 4 technical universities, 1 industrial companies (SME), 4 vocational secondary schools and IT training organizations.MotivationThe project reacts to the decreased interest in studying at secondary schools providing education in electrical and information engineering, as well as in the related fields. Our motivation is to contribute to higher attractiveness of the study, to foster the students’ interest in the given field and to involve them in the international competition.Objectives and formsThe main objective is to increase the quality of education at vocational secondary schools using a form that will be highly attractive for students.This objective has been achieved through preparing a wide portfolio of modern learning aids and offering them in an attractive way as:• Explanations arranged in the form of an explanatory dictionary (similarly as in Wikipedia, but with guaranteed content);• Worksheets;• Short chapters of text;• Tests;• Multimedia multilingual translation dictionary.All these types of content are now available in English, German, Spanish, Czech and Slovak. Thus, the developed materials will be useful also for language education.The formats of the learning aids include LMS packages (e.g. for Moodle), PDF, as well as formats suitable for e-book readers and mobile devices (smartphones, tablets). All files are now freely downloadable from the learning portal where teachers and their students may choose those materials (or their parts) that are interesting for them (in terms of content or form) and capable of enriching their teaching/learning. In order to increase the attractiveness for the students, a special Facebook account has been maintained during the project.Pilot testing was a substantial part of the project implementation; it included also students’ international competition – Technical Olympiad; its winners have been awarded attractive prizes and issued certificates.Learning topicsThe project consortium has identified a large number of modern topics, for which, however, there are often not available any learning materials in the considered languages in satisfactory quality. The topics have been selected by secondary school teachers – not only from the consortium, but also from other training institutions:Wireless networksCryptography, cybercriminalityModern security systemsCloud computingAutomationSystems for intelligent buildings and homesHome automationInternet of thingsUser identificationMMI (multimodal interfaces) for interactive communication and navigationFuture Networks - SDN & NFVNew generation of multimedia services/applicationsOptical systems and networksOptoelectronics, photonics and sensorsModern data interfacesModern modulation methodsUse of power lines for transmission of messages (PLC, BPL)High-speed Internet AccessModern TV standardsLTE (Long Term Evolution)
