METHODS OF METROLOGICAL RESEARCH IN THE STUDY OF INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS BY HIGHER EDUCATION APPLICANTS FOR TECHNOLOGICAL AND VOCATIONAL EDUCATION SPECIALTIES

Abstract

The current state of society puts forward new tasks for the organization of the educational process for the preparation of higher education applicants in various sectors of the national economy. Taking into account the urgent needs of the organization of the educational process, namely distance learning, there is a problem in developing appropriate methods for the formation of professional competencies of students. Modern production is difficult to imagine without specialists in metrology. At industrial enterprises, it is necessary to constantly determine the parameters of technological processes and control the quality of industrial products. A fairly rapid introduction of computerized information-measuring systems into the production process requires highly skilled workers who design, implement and maintain these systems. Thus, the field of activity of specialists in metrology and information-measuring equipment covers almost all branches of industry in Ukraine. Studies conducted by scientists indicate the unresolved problem posed regarding the construction of the educational process in distance learning when students study the basics of metrology. In the first place is the state of material and technical support of students, inaccessibility to the necessary equipment, lack of appropriate methodological support when using available computer equipment and software. Therefore, there is a search for alternative means in the organization of distance learning, which leads to the development of accessible methods of teaching the basics of metrology. Analysis of scientific research devoted to the problems of organizing and conducting metrological research in the study of industrial electronics by higher education students of technological and vocational education in distance learning indicates that there are certain difficulties in their formulation, namely the impossibility of using measuring equipment. Our proposed approach to conducting metrological research in distance learning, namely: the use of virtual equipment during laboratory work to a certain extent satisfies the tasks. There is a prospect of further methodological developments to provide metrological research based on virtual devices, which would significantly improve the level of students' learning the basics of metrology.
