7 APPLICATION OF ELEARNING IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Abstract. The paper presents an overview of the currents state of development of eLearning in Electrical Engineering. State of the art and steps in the development of interactive multimedia educational materials are shown. The paper also summarizes results achieved at development of multimedia based eLearning tools in the field of electrical drives and power electronics. Virtual and distance laboratories extend possibilities of the web application area. This leads to an openly integrated environment which facilitates sharing not only of educational material, but also hardware and software resources. Finally, there are sketched expected trends and challenges for future development of the e-learning for electrical engineering subjects
