PROJECT SUMMARY

 

The wider objective of this project is to increase attractiveness of engineering education through innovative teaching methods as well as through the strengthening of university- secondary vocational schools collaboration.

The specific objectives, within the aforementioned wider one, include:

• To build cross-universities network of remote engineering laboratories in order to enhance engineering education at Serbian HE institutions
• To strengthen university-secondary vocational schools collaboration through secondary vocational schools teacher training in using resources of The Library of Remote Experiments
• To bring remote engineering experiments into secondary vocational school classrooms in order to promote engineering education attractiveness to prospective engineering students

The expected outputs and outcomes include:

• Conducted analysis of the state-of-the-art remote labs networks at EU universities
• Conducted analysis of remote experiments at partner universities
• Created the Guidelines for techno-pedagogical requirements for the remote labs
• Builded infrastructure for remote experimentation at partner universities
• Signed agreement on networking of remote engineering laboratories from partner universities
• Designed LiReX library of remote experiments
• Developed a set of new remote engineering experiments at partner universities
• Approx. 180 secondary vocational schools teachers trained in using of remote experiments
• Approx. 25 new learning modules with remote experiments integrated into the curricula of networked partner universities
• Approx. 25 new learning modules with remote experiments integrated into the curricula of selected secondary vocational schools
• The number of agreements on the right of use of the LiReX resources and ownership signed by teachers from HE and secondary vocational schools during and after project lifecycle
• The Annual Conference on Remote Experimentation established
• The network NeReLa included into EU networks
