Journal of Educational Technology and Online Learning, v7 n4 p413-426 2024
The purpose of this study is to provide students with a 21st century training that can be easily applied to industrial automation training, both online and in person, and that goes beyond traditional learning methods. It involves creating and programming a training package that is compatible with the Ministry of National Education (MEB) curriculum, using the project-based learning (PBL) method and a curriculum that focuses on skills acquisition. Two different brands of programmable logic controllers (PLC) have been integrated into the manufactured training set so that the set can be used to conduct various PLC trainings. In the training set, product separation can be carried out using the electro-pneumatic system with a turntable and two conveyor belts. Motor controls, sensor applications, electro-pneumatics, touch panel and various PLC controls can also be carried out with the training set. The set focuses on the grafcet diagram method and can show how to program the same scenarios in different PLC models. By using PLC software components in the training set, students also get the opportunity to develop and experience their own unique SCADA (supervisory control and Data Acquisition) software with visual programming. This study also includes a sample curriculum prepared for PBL. In this way, all on-set training can be done using the PBL method and students get a 21st century experience. They also get the opportunity to improve their skills. PBL is an innovative and process-oriented learning method and is supported by the Ministry of Education (MoE). The prepared curriculum also includes the learning plan and measurement and assessment scales (rubrics). We anticipate that this package will be effective and useful in providing students with 21st century job skills and abilities in the field of industrial automation engineering, both online and face-to-face.
