Guidelines for the creation of digital educational resources in the field of technosphere safety at NSTU

Abstract

The key challenges for the flagship technical university of NSTU are new formats of open online learning, open mass online courses on external learning platforms (MOOCs), as well as campus private courses hosted on the DiSpace 2.0 platform in the light of digital changes and transformations in education. Various types of digital educational resources are presented, including online courses and courses based on electronic educational and methodological complexes at NSTU. Guidelines for creating online courses on the NSTU LMS “DiSpacе” have been developed. The components of the online course are described according to the quality criteria of Quality Matters (QM), an organization that provides a scalable online course quality assurance process. Conclusions are drawn about the use of online courses hosted on the NSTU software platform as mass open courses when placed on learning platforms, as well as when organizing blended learning at NSTU.
