Problem-based learning (PBL) educators resorted to developing their own environments even with existence of comprehensive Learning Management Systems (LMS). They realized that both commercial and open source systems were designed with traditional lecture-based instruction in mind. The systems lack the features and scenarios required by the inherently collaborative, dynamic, and timely pedagogy. The...
Bachelor and master's qualifications include assignments that involve the preparation of final projects. Their underlying pedagogical model is often based on final or end-of-course projects, which carry a high number of ECTS credits (12 or more), to be completed over one semester. Each project, which simulates a real life professional situation, is completed by an individual student or a group of...
The development of tele-operated experimentation and its provision to distance learners opens new dimensions of knowledge acquisition, particularly where experiments are the core elements of engineering education. The finalized EU-funded project PeTEX-Platform for e-Learning and Telemetric Experimentation has developed a prototype of an e-learning platform based on Moodle for the design and implementation...
This communication describes a learning platform which is being developed at the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) in Barcelona, Spain. The goal was to solve the trade-off between the need for performing real laboratory practices in engineering education and the emergent implantation of distance learning in our curricula. Most of our courses in electronic engineering have 50% of the load devoted...
