The materials meet modern requirements and include interactive elements.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of this training material is to develop spatial visualization skills and give the students an opportunity to acquire knowledge independently via the Internet without special equipment and specialty-specific software.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn modern teaching, there is a need to employ modern technological advances to engage students in the learning process by creating and continuously developing interesting and relevant teaching materials,\u201d commented Olga Ovt\u0161arenko, leading lecturer at TTK UAS\u2019 Centre for Real Sciences and the leader of the project.<\/p>\n<p>She explained that the possibility of receiving and using feedback is not only an indicator of a successful educational process, but also an effective guide for the student to move through the learning process step-by-step. \u201cSimulators of various objects are efficient learning materials that contain necessary information and features that are easy and intuitive to use.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In November 2020, the new Erasmus + project &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.google.com\/tktk.ee\/virstem\/virstem\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">VirSTEM &#8211; Use of Virtual Technology in STEM<\/a>&#8221; was launched, which aims to create an open online course &#8220;Fundamentals of Engineering Graphics&#8221; with 3 ECTS integrated BIM (Building Information Modeling). The e-course is designed for both, the undergraduate students of civil engineering as well as for in-service training of specialists.<\/p>\n<p>Egert-Ronald Parts, a lecturer in the Institute of Civil Engineering, said that the efficiency of the construction industry can be increased by using BIM solutions more widely. \u201cThe volume of BIM subjects should be increased, and the study materials upgraded in the training of current and future engineers. Interactive 3D building models and BIM-based solutions make the acquisition of new learning materials more inclusive and easier,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Given the current inevitability of distance learning, there is a need to find a new approach to specialists\u2019 education, in which distance learning and individual learning are given a leading role, using high-quality interactive learning materials.<\/p>\n<p>According to the lecturers of the Institute of Civil Engineering, the &nbsp;interactive solutions of the project help to facilitate the acquisition of the subject and create more connections with the content learned in relation with the subsequent subjects and help to prepare the future engineers better for needs of the labour market.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe VirSTEM project uses the most up-to-date information and communication technology methodologies. The project focuses on creating and promoting combined and flexible learning methods, using group and mobile learning, and supporting the learner\u2019s choices and creativity,\u201d explained Egert-Ronald Parts.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-126165\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tktk.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/virtec.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8690,"template":"","nd_news_cat":[],"uudiste_rubriigid":[448,447],"uudiste_sildid":[],"class_list":["post-14332","uudised","type-uudised","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","uudiste_rubriigid-news","uudiste_rubriigid-uncategorizedhome"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Interactive learning materials for construction students created as a result of the Erasmus+ project - Tallinna Tehnikak\u00f5rgkool<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tktk.ee\/en\/news\/interactive-learning-materials-for-construction-students-created-as-a-result-of-the-erasmus-project\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Interactive learning materials for construction students created as a result of the Erasmus+ project - Tallinna Tehnikak\u00f5rgkool\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"As a result of the joint work in the Erasmus-funded project \u201cDevelopment of a Virtual Learning Environment in Technical Higher Education\u201d (VirTec, 2018-2021) a set of interactive study materials for first-year students in construction was created.
