Augmented Reality Technologies in Students Project Activities

The development of information technology has given an important impetus to the development of many sectors of development, including education. One of the conditions for improving learning outcomes in terms of new approaches and requirements is the introduction of information technology. The 21st century is called informational (knowledge-based, information technology, etc.). At this time of increasing information flow and rapid technological development, there is a need for cooperation and exchange of information and knowledge. In 2019, Mongolia was ranked 14th in Asia in the ICT Development Index in a keynote speech at the Mongolia International Digital User Conference. The use of active teaching methods improves the knowledge and skills of students. Active learning is learning that engages learners in the learning process and allows them to think about what they are doing and find ways to do it. Active learning is about helping students learn for themselves, not teaching them. Since the development of computer technology and the emergence of the Internet, scientists and educators in developed and developing countries of the world have conducted a wide range of experimental studies on the use of electronic technology and electronic materials in the learning process. Depending on the type of information technology used in training, it is divided into: e-learning, mobile learning, u-learning, blended learning, and more. The study mentioned in the article is a blended form of study, and in recent years, it has become commonplace in the best universities in the world to combine full-time education with online education at the same level. The study of methods and ways of introducing electronic technology in education are of practical importance. In this article, we present the results of some studies carried out on the example of teaching the subject of engineering graphics at MGUNT.

The question of teaching staff readiness to digitalize the educational process is considered in this paper. Digital education is a prerequisite for training of specialists meeting the requirements for the XXI century digital economy. There are a number of challenges in introducing digital learning, including those in engineering education. Digitalization of the technical subject area is very costly process that has its own specifics and requires developers to possess not only professional competencies related to a particular discipline, but also to be advanced in the arear of information and communication technologies. Besides modern teaching and laboratory facilities, and computer systems for various purposes, an important condition for promoting of digitization in subject teaching is teaching staff willingness to improve their teaching skills along with fluency in modern digital technologies. As an example of subject teaching, in this paper are considered informatization and digitalization of basic geometric and graphic training for students at technical higher education institutes. The analysis is carried out from the point of view related to preparation of the academic teaching staff for creation and implementation of the educational environment that meets the requirements for dynamically developing design as a type of engineering activity. The scheme for realization of mixed learning has been presented, which introduction is determined by students' individual work implementation, and the process of students' online geometric-graphic training during self-isolation for COVID-19 prevention has been described. An analysis of teacher's activity content increase in the full online training mode has been carried out. Has been presented a set of practical measures acting to raise the chair’s teaching staff qualification and providing readiness to solving urgent problems of students’ learning through the digital educational environment. As a conclusion of the study, it is stated that in digitalization conditions the most successful form for implementing of basic geometric and graphic training is the form of blended learning.

Increasing the visibility of representation for objects studying in the process of solving basic problems related to descriptive geometry (DG) significantly improves the understanding and perception of the discipline by students. A team of authors representing St. Petersburg Mining University’s DG and Graphics Chair developed their own projects, which are interactive graphics that allow teachers to visualize the solution of some DG course’s problems directly during academic studies. Projects have been created by the Wolfram Mathematica (WM) system tools and divided into 7 sections: points, lines, planes, geometric elements’ mutual position; relative position of a straight line and a second order surface; relative position of a plane and a second order surface; relative position of second order surfaces; mutual position of revolution bodies and polyhedrons; relative position of polyhedrons; a tangent plane to a second-order surface. Difficulties that have arisen in the work, ideas and possibilities for further implementation of proposed principles for using computational WM algorithms when creating and employing these projects in the process of students’ geometric-graphic training are discussed. It is noted that WM allows you manipulate data and observe how the result is changing dynamically, that certainly makes it possible and is an advantage of WM for using it in students’ geometric-graphic teaching. Lecturers of DG and Graphics Chairs can: use the proposed in this work projects aimed at implement various graphic constructions for both preparation of academic studies and in real-time mode during them; create elements of information supply for the educational process; develop demonstration support for academic studies, that in turn will ensure the proper material assimilation by students.
