IMPLEMENT ONLINE LABORATORIES IN ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER ENGINEERING EDUCATION USING VIRTUAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS Authors: Adascalitei Adrian, El-Din Zein El-Din Ashraf Salah, Aradoaiei Sebastian, Temneanu Marinel Volume 3 | DOI: 10.12753/2066-026X-19-159 | Pages: 162-170 | Download PDF | Abstract
The article presents a review of the current e-pedagogical methods to develop Electrical and Computer Engineering Education Study Programs. Engineering crucial experimental competences can be developed with the help of remote labs and simulations. Developing critical thinking while working with virtual resources is critical and students should understand which kind of results they compile with each feature. Even though it addresses the same problematic - differentiating remote labs from simulations - focus on a different scope: not the ability to do it, but how you can do it. Online laboratories are fundamental for home experimentation because they are specially designed for distant learning students to acquire introductory hands-on experience and familiarize themselves with real-life phenomena. These online experiments can be found in different engineering fields, including electronics Electrical and Computer Engineering. Instructional Design Model is based on the ADDIE model that includes Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation phases. Virtual learning environments (VLE) are used to refer the online interactions for a variety of kinds that take place between students and teachers. Moodle (Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment) is known as a Course Management System (CMS). Sometimes we knew as Learning Management Systems (LMS) that provides educators with tools to create a course web site. Moodle (which is an open source software e-learning platform) web pages provide developer information, roadmap, coding guide and Concurrent Versioning System (CVS) guide to access its source code and it has a long list of developers. The review article provides resources to help
teacher educators, administrators, and policymakers better apply ICTs to engineering education programmes. The resources were developed by Faculty of Electrical Engineering (Technical University "Gh. Asachi" Ia?i, Romania and Menoufia University, Egypt) with extensive experience in the integration of ICTs into engineering teacher preparation programmes. | Keywords
