DigitalVet project

The development of information technology in education, enables access to many digital learning resources, such as videos, e-books, simulations, graphics, games, e-activities, e-tests, leading to the so called e-learning. However, it is very difficult for students to choose and manage suitable resources.

Vocational Education and Training (VET) requires application, teacher-student interaction, and the traditional master-apprentice relationship, distance learning is far from being a solution to this situation. In order to realize a complete learning; both the source of learning and the method of learning need to be diversified according to the training steps and the learner himself. VET students who have been attending VET centres should be provided with e-learning resources enabling them to take a more active role in their learning process. In order for distance learning to be successfully used in VET, training must be conveyed in a way that is unique to each student by discovering how the individual learns.

LRTRO is a teaching method that detects how an individual learns with different learning activities as well as social learning exercises; it drives the learning process accordingly, and supports a structural approach:

  • Love: It starts with making the student love the subject. The basic logic is, “If you do what you love, you won’t work for life.”
  • Read: With small research projects, students are directed to research, by talking to them we will understand what they have read, which means listening to them.
  • Try: The student will be able to recognize the equipment that will be used with the simulations prepared for distance learning and will be able to apply it in an interactive way.
  • Review: The topics and timing are distributed in a mixed way. Individuals with different learning and application speeds will be able to review the subject at different paces. Multiple project-based samples will be prepared for the same subject, these samples will be transferred to each student by different methods, and students’ feedback will be used to determine which method is suitable for each student.
  • Observe: In this process, the individual will be monitored continuously and will be subject to evaluation. At the end of the training period, the goal is to achieve the same acquisitions as in face to face classes.

The digital training content to be developed will be prepared with a structural approach and using the LRTRO teaching method. With the use of these training contents, the aim is to contribute to the continuity of professional training in the process of distance learning. The training program to be offered will be provided along with individual observing and coaching support. The interactive simulation environment supported by the experimental and applicable projects to be prepared with this project will support the student-cantered learning process in distance learning.

As a result of the need analysis and literature scan in our region, in the scope of this project it is planned to: prepare the training content of the Smart Home Systems courses in the field of Electrical-Electronic Technology with the support of simulation. With this project, the central control unit of Smart Home Automation systems, numerical input sensing units, numerical output units, model input sensing units, key units, model output units and electromagnets related to electro mechanics Controls, Panel Design and Installation, Hydraulic and Pneumatic Systems will be the simulations (virtual labs) that will achieve the learning acquisitions of the courses and also a student-centred LMS will be set up to follow this process.
