摘要：
The world of technical education is moving towards an information collapse. This situation entails an aggravation of the contradiction between the desire to deliver more information to engineering students and the limitation imposed by the actual time that can be devoted to this activity. This, in turn, results in extensive competition between the subjects being taught and the consequent downgrading of certain areas. The 'second-grade' subjects, such as drawing, subjects providing empirical knowledge, and the teaching of ideas about how things work are being pushed into the background by modern, updated, computer-aided and computer-serving subjects. The negative results of this competition in terms of teaching time and the better use computerized technology education are considered in this paper.
