The Use of Computerized Laboratory and Training Complexes in Engineering and Pedagogical Education

Abstract

AbstractThe article gives insight into the problem of reforming the practical professional training of engineer-teachers on the basis of integrated use of modern information and computer technologies. To solve this problem, it is proposed to improve and develop new technologies of practical training, considering modern development of information, computer and production technologies as well as modernization and reorganization of existing infrastructure and material and technical support of practical training of workers as well as engineering and pedagogical personnel. This article shows that the use of modern teaching technologies, especially information and computer technology, makes changes in the structure of teaching environments, which in turn result in additional elements in the form of teaching environment management tools, information and communication tools. It describes an innovative approach to the organization of a teaching environment based on the use of computerized laboratory and training complexes, the composition and functions of these complexes, means for managing components of a teaching environment, and means for information and multimedia communication of students with the teacher on the basis of demonstration and projection equipment as well as networks with an educational content server.KeywordsEngineering and pedagogical educationLearning environmentComputer learning technologiesTraining complexes
