Digitalization of the educational process of the transport university

Abstract

Digital technologies are more present in our lives. Such concepts as blockchain, Big data, Internet of Things (IoT) 5G networks, artifi cial intelligence are already becoming commonplace. The educational process, which should be organized to solve key production problems, is no exception. The training of personnel for the transport industry is carried out taking into account the fact that in the near future every graduate of a transport educational institution should have digital competencies. In this regard, the features and nuances of teaching digital technologies are extremely important and relevant. The article discusses the methodology for teaching students of the popular IoT technology. The possibilities of the hardware and software complex “Industrial Internet of Things” (agro-industrial complex IoT), which has been used in the educational process of PGUPS since 2021, are considered. The questions are discussed how best to conduct IoT training, what practical skills students will acquire when working with elements of the IoT agro-industrial complex. There is no doubt that transformation in technical education should take place with the use of similar IoT agro-industrial complex. In the near future, it is precisely such educational laboratory stands that will allow organizing training in digital competencies at a high level, which is extremely necessary for the preparation of graduates adapted to modern production tasks.
