Development of multimedia laboratory course for engineering students

Development of the educational technology in field of the engineer´s training have received great attention in recent years. The new information technology will significantly improve the methods of technical discipline teaching and thus level of the engineering students. This paper describes the results of IT using for virtual course creation and presents the structure of multimedia laboratory course “Technological equipment” for engineering students. The course consists of the main steps of lab running: test before lab, studying the unit operations of equipment by using of it animation scheme and three-dimension models, measurement and calculation of the main technical characteristics, check the results of calculation and study of their changing in depends on different work condition. The results of scientific research are using for create the step of analyzing of the studied process. The use of a virtual multimedia course opens novel perspectives for organizing the educational process for engineering students.
