Cybernetic education centre

Abstract

Cybernetic education centre (CEDUC) integrates (1) the e-learning system Moodle, which primary provides the linear delivery of knowledge content managed by teacher as well as collaborative e-learning modules, (2) distributed real, virtual, simulation models as a support for e-learning to give student interactive feedback within the learning process and (3) the Assessment module realized in the in the Learning Management System (LMS) Moodle. The e-learning in Department of Cybernetics and Artificial Intelligence is not full online learning system, but all subjects are implemented as blended learning combining classical face-to-face learning with e-learning. This paper deals with remote access to controlled models in the laboratories of our department, (a) real laboratory models, (b) simulation models and (c) virtual models, whose implement many technologies from world leaders in area of automation and can not be implemented natively as Moodle modules. Remote student access to control process of these models is conditional, depending on their assessment results. The paper presents methodology of design of blended learning using remote control of models, in are of Cybernetic and Automation, implemented in CEDUC.
