Abstract:
In the CRUNT TEMPUS project, epedagogy of using ITC learning environments was used. Elearning interuniversity network of Moldova uses a virtual learning environment for training and learning process improvement dedicated to engineering students. The article presents some methodological elements that contributed to the success of TEMPUS CRUNT Project. Several web courses, based on Blended Learning methodology are highlighted. This paper presents elearning instruction materials for engineering undergraduates developed on the Virtual Learning Environment http://elearning.utm.md/moodle/login/index.php/. Processes of: design, development and implementation of interactive educational modules are presented, for the topic of electrical engineering and technology. Elearning modules provide student with information examples containing rich multimedia elements: text, glossary, webography, bibliography, knowledge and skills assimilation assessment. The modules are divided into a number of teaching and learning units which can be studied autonomously (or independent). Electrical Engineering and Technology (EET) Discipline model is a new approach to learning electrical technologyone that presents concepts in the customary logically developed order but illustrates them with exemplars that reflect the applications students are interested in. Electrical Engineering Discipline resources are especially for secondary school teachers and students, with topics ranging from introductory to advanced Electrical Engineering and Technology. Teachers will find reliable and quality resources including videos, articles, demonstrations, worksheets, assessments and activities all in one location. Resources are searchable by topic and standards. eLearning Modules are using visualization of electrical engineering concepts. These principles focus on a few specific pedagogical pointers: 1. providing multiple representations and descriptions, 2. making linked referential connections visible, 3. presenting the dynamic and interactive nature of electrical engineering, 4. promoting the transformation between 2D and 3D, and 5. reducing cognitive load by making information explicit and integrating information for students.
