Poster: The Usage of Open Educational Resources and Practices in Training Engineers for the IT Sector

The usage of open educational resources and practices is especially important in training engineers for the IT sector because of students' advanced technological skills and engagement. The study examined the possibility of using quasi-professional assignments that implement the principles of openness in the course of Psychology and Pedagogy in training engineers for the ICT sector. To achieve the goal, difficulties and barriers in the applying the principles of openness in the educational process were studied. In the training of engineers for the IT sector, a set of authentic project-type quasi-professional assignments was developed, in which students played the roles of researchers, producers, rather than consumers, and created reusable educational resources.
