  • Abstract
    This paper puts forward a scenario-based programming method for organization and execution of virtual projects with particular attention to design group issues. Only blended courses, where some classes thus far have been delivered by university teachers in teaching classrooms and laboratories have been discussed. Later, they will be singled out and delivered through e-learning sessions using the faculty´s e-learning portal. Emphasis has been put on adapting interactive components of the platform to planned interactions, both in teacher-student-teacher and student-student-student relations. Obligatory remote exchange of information among the design team was taken as one of boundary conditions for the project. In this paper, general phrases and suggestions were determined based on example issues of concern, thematically related to planning and organization of distributed computing procedures for local ICT networks, which would enable re-entrant and multi-user numerical computations and data acquisition in real time.
