Modern Technologies in the Engineer Academic Teaching for the Transport Infrastructure Engineering Course
Journal Title: Logistics and Transport - Year 2014, Vol 24, Issue 4
Abstract
The proposal of introducing new technologies in the engineer academic teaching for the transport infrastructure engineering run at the International University of Logistics and Transport in Wrocław since 2012 is presented. The attention was given to the two main issues: − improvement of attraction and effectiveness of professional internships, − introduction of digital tools in education of transport infrastructure engineers. The collaboration with research institutes and rail and road authorities in to order to realize master’s theses is proposed. The procedure of realization of the master’s thesis is analysed. The e-learning ideology was presented, in particular: the service system, the participants of e-learning system, authorization of participants, kinds of didactic materials and the manner of their preparation, the kinds of courses and evaluation systems (tests, analysis of tasks, and also the manner of assessment of participants activity, by means of e.g. a questionnaire). Special attention was give to didactic staff’s participation in courses on methods and techniques of distance education.
