Know-how transfer and collaboration in learning and teaching are aspects promoted and sustained by institutional management as well as the European initiatives. Thus, leading to the idea of a federation which will facilitate engineering education. A consortium...
In the study of technical matters the realization of practices keep a relevant importance to improve the use of the subjects since allows to students to carry out processes, measures, experiments, etc. Moreover, students in Master degree level require a high level of specialization which helps them to get required competences. With this research work on competency-based learning management systems...
Technology-enhanced learning is not just interacting with learning objects. Physical labs are another useful resource in education, especially for engineering and science education. They are confined to the physical location they are bound to. It is obviously interesting for any learning process to be able to open up this access from remote locations in the same effective way as learning objects are...
Nowadays, there are a great number of universities and organizations working in e-learning solutions. One of most well-known is the learning management system or LMS that allow displaying theoretical content in an organized and controlled way. In some jobs and studies it is necessary that the student get a practical knowledge as well as a theoretical knowledge. To obtain this practical knowledge,...
The DIEEC (Electrical and Computer Engineering Department) of UNED (Spanish University for Distance Education) in Spain is elaborating different tools to teach in computer architecture subject by using new technologies. DIPSEIL (distributed Internet-based performance support environment for individualized learning) is one of the projects where we are experimenting with teaching by task in Internet...
This paper introduces a generalized solution to support the development and reuse of practical educational scenarios. It is intended to complement the reuse initiatives already proposed for LMS resources, such as LOM, SCORM or IMS. These initiatives are mainly focused in media contents. By the contrary, this proposal is concerned with the tools that can be used in practical educational scenarios:...
