The Use of Moodle E-Learning Platform for the Educational Component «vehicles»

Given the increasing use of course management systems as a teaching tool, it is important to pay attention to the potential of using educational technologies in higher education institutions. Whatever the reasons, most learning tools are currently underutilized in teaching and need to be studied and popularized more deeply among both teachers and students. It is thanks to its simple interface, responsive design, and ease of use that Moodle has been adopted by many universities and organizations around the world. The National University of Water and Environmental Engineering did not stand aside. Moodle is a universal educational platform for conducting face-to-face, practical and online classes that allows you to centrally manage the entire learning environment, which will increase the efficiency of work within the institution. For students, Moodle is a centralized platform for educational information that facilitates access to the necessary information and creates a better learning environment, ensuring close interaction between the teacher and the student. The study reveals the possibilities of using Moodle for the educational component «Vehicles» based on the results obtained and feedback from participants in the educational process in the context of the specialty «Transport Technologies». The content of the educational component «Vehicles» is carried out thematically in the relevant sections: educational program, syllabus, grading scale, lecture support, methodological support for laboratory work, laboratory work, recommendations for self-study, current module and final control, teaching materials, non-formal and informal education, etc. The study reflects the capabilities of Moodle’s functionality for course content, the use of various types of assessment, as well as monitoring students' progress in learning the material, and conducting surveys. The main goal is to improve the quality of learning through digital tools and methods, providing students with constant access to a variety of resources combined in one environment, promoting more effective learning and increasing interest in the course.
