APPLICATIONS OF E-LEARNING IN ENGINEERING EDUCATION - created from Mind Map

Seite 1

Involves use of ICT for delivery of classroom lectures, demostrations and conduct of laboratory experiments

Animation and visualizations can be used in classrooms for better understanding of the lessons

ICT equipment like visualizers / digital still and video cameras can be interfaced to projectors to cover the whole class which is time saving

Engineering software can be used in networked computing laboratory to demonstrate and carry out experiment

Current practices of ICT and e- learning in engineering education

INDIVIDUALS

Can be used to demonstrate the working of a component funtioning of a circuit / process

Diverse types are made available for learners to download / online study

Type of resources are digital / digitalized such as :

Online system such as:

Web permits educational institutions shave their teaching expertise and learning resources globally

notes

tutorials

e-books

online system

Online resources (simulations, structured lessons, animations, videos, etc

Multi-user, dynamic and interactive learning environments permitting constructive learning

Lila

Very active in developing learning objects for engineering education

Using ICT for student assessment, found that ICTs can facilitate the best aspects of assessment.

Problem-based learning (PBL) implementation in the postgraduate engineering curriculum using a qualitate and collaborate design

Learning style theory is a potential tool for guiding the design and improvement of course and helping students to improve their educational performance
