Target groups

Primary target group :

Trainers & teachers that perform didactical activity in electrical domain.

Secondary target groups :

Organisations:

1. Industrial high schools, technical colleges, engineering faculties, which need to meet the requirements of the labour market.

2. Industrial companies, small and medium enterprises (SMEs), which need to adapt the professional profile of their employees to the newest technologies.

3. Agencies for Occupational and Professional Formation, which need the best (re)training courses.

Sector:

4. The industry, particularly the electrical domain,which is in a spectacular revival that requires a large number of high-qualified personnel (young and reconverted) on a transnational European labour market.

Objectives

Perfectioning the learning sistem in the electrical domain by using long distance experiments via Internet.

For accomplishing this objective the project proposes :

creating a virtual laboratory, that means a software simulated laboratory which allows making experiments via Internet.
creating teaching software (a set of 9 programmes) dedicated to some subjects from the electrical, electronic and automatics domains.

Aims

The project's activities have the purpose to realize :

the necessary software tools to implement the original teaching approach proposed by this project;
demonstrative kit for each achieved software product;
a guide book refering to the realised software products;
dissemination materials.
