The global trend for networked learning and ongoing sharing of knowledge is creating dynamic upswings in education, innovation and the economy. This is leading, amongst other things, to international standards for technology and content in vocational and advanced training. We are not only actively driving these developments forwards, but also offer the solutions needed to tap into the potential of these trends.
Our eLearning courses teach students with theory nuggets, interactive animations, videos, graphics and exercises for reflection. Applications and examples from industry are used to apply the acquired knowledge to students’ and employees’ day-to-day work.
The practice-oriented approach ensures that learning is dynamic and motivating, whilst also creating freedom for the tutors.
Use our eLearning courses to suit your training infrastructure.
Connected Learning opens up a new dimension in learning by seamlessly connecting the virtual and the real worlds.
You can combine familiar learning methods such as classroom-based learning, practical learning and self-study; the direct interaction between the software and the hardware removes the boundary between theory and practice. Connected Learning is implemented using the mobile, multimedia and interactive learning companion Tec2Screen®.
Professional competence, being self-sufficient and adaptable are important skills that are required in our day-to-day work. The Connected Learning concept lays the foundation for acquiring precisely these skills and competencies for technical careers. Connected Learning delivers modern technologies for innovative technical training directly to you!
Tec2Screen® is the interactive learning companion that facilitates Connected Learning.
With its patented Connect interface, Tec2Screen® bridges the gap between the virtual and real worlds and, together with the base, forms the heart of the system. The courses and simulations we have developed provide the content for learning, informing, controlling, measuring, regulating and programming, with everything connected to real hardware through the Connects interfaces. Students can explore and experience the exciting world of technology through interaction and experiments, and directly follow the flow of signals between hardware and software.
Thanks to the modular and flexible structure of the learning units, you can use Tec2Screen® anywhere and at any time and adapt the learning process and learning speed to suit students’ individual needs. This allows you to consistently build on students’ existing knowledge and interests.
Learning at home or on the road – the system’s mobility allows students to learn how to use new digital media anywhere and at any time.
There are various options for using and managing Tec2Screen® courses and simulations.
We developed the Connects – plug-in modules with a patented interface – to allow students to explore the connection between the real and virtual worlds. The Connects enable the direct interaction between the software and the hardware and thus between theoretical knowledge and practical application. The signal flow is always clearly visible and traceable.
The Base is made of a sturdy plastic housing with integrated brackets and is used for holding the Apple iPad® and the Connects, our plug-in interface modules.
A tablet PC with a touch-sensitive screen and multitouch gesture control. You can get started straightaway thanks to a pre-installed account and apps:
As the base unit, the Tec2Screen® Base connects the iPad® with the patented Connects. The iPad® can be used as a tablet, independently of the Tec2Screen®, in the classroom and elsewhere.
The Classroom Manager learning management system manages all the digital learning media such as Tec2Screen® courses, simulations, multimedia training programs or user-created documents in a central library. You can also create your own tests or questionnaires. These learning media can be used to create your own learning units and assign them to individual students based on their abilities.
Manage and assign the learning content and then evaluate and document each individual’s learning progress.
If you're already using a learning management system (LMS), we offer our Tec2Screen® Manager with limited functionality as a free alternative.
Videos, animations, measurement exercises and test assignments inspire students to explore and discover – this makes learning exciting!
The virtual measuring instruments integrated into the courses encourage students to troubleshoot interactively. Completing the courses offline, outside of the lab, is also an option – technology can be learned anywhere and at any time!
Benefits:
With a modern training system, complex topics can be presented using simple and easy-to-understand simulations.
The structure and presentation of Tec2Screen® lends itself perfectly to realistically test and simulate different techniques, programming languages and application areas of PLC programming. The process is literally in the student’s hands and they can follow the signal flow through the circuits and lines on the iPad®.
Students use the QR code scanner in practical training sessions to explore training packages, MPS® modules, stations or individual components.
Tec2Screen® provides the exercises and tools for recording and displaying measured values. Virtual measuring instruments, such as the multimeter and oscilloscope, capture both analogue and digital signals. This enables students to take various measurements, such as voltage, current or resistance, during electrical engineering tasks.
