For creating and developing new distance courses according to European standards it is necessary to develop the facilities. It is planned to equip the Center with a printer and a copying machine, c olour scanner, digital plotting board, software and video tools for developing and working out the materials for new distance courses. It is also planned to purchase videotapes, books and periodicals. It is also supposed to purchase a special system STELLUS™. It is a web technology-based modular software system that has full functionality and its designed to support open learning. STELLUS has been registered with the Ministry of Education of Russian Federation. STELLUS™ -based solutions are delivered and supported through: a software system, communication channels or local network, commensurable with the Work Team scale, trained staff (training of two persons is part of the terms and conditions of the product delivery), training materials database and a set of the appropriate reporting forms.
STELLUS™ includes the modules that allow the development of courses and tests, curricula planning, and learning process management; as well as system administration.
Newly developed courses are to be tested first in face-to-face trainings for their further implementation into the distance training process by 18 trainers of BSUEL.
