Zusammenfassung |
Universities and other higher education institutions involved in
water-related engineering education are facing new challenges in offering
lifelong learning services and online educational support. Both the
curricula and the form of delivery are changing, as contemporary water
problems require interdisciplinary approaches involving diverse and up to
date expertise maintained via continuous professional development.
Hydroinformatics education faces similar challenges in developing relevant
curricula and finding appropriate combinations of course delivery to its
target group. This article presents experiences from delivering two
hydroinformatics courses in the fields of flood modelling for management
(FMM) and decision support systems (DSS) in river basin management that in
recent years have been delivered both online and in classroom settings.
Comparisons between the two modes of delivery are provided, with the
conclusion that online education in this field, although still faced with
many challenges, has a promising potential for meeting future educational
needs. |
