Instructions for participants of the e-course “Artificial Intelligence in Education”

5. Minimum technical requirements for attending the e-course

Types of content in an e-course:

Educational multimedia materials, primarily textual (such as lessons and pages), are available in the Loomen e-learning system and can be accessed directly through a web browser. All materials can also be downloaded in PDF format. Therefore, users must have a PDF reader installed. However, if using browsers like Firefox or Chrome, a PDF reader is not required, as PDFs can be opened directly in the browser.

The video lessons are originally hosted on the CARNET's multimedia portal Meduza and are integrated into the Loomen e-learning system pages, allowing access without leaving Loomen. To view the video lessons, an internet connection of at least 2 Mbit/s is required, as well as headphones or speakers.

The practical tasks are completed using various tools and artificial intelligence systems (e.g., Curipod, Media.io AI Avatar Generator, Nero AI, Litmap, SciSpace AI, Gamma.app, Canva Magic Design / Magic Presentation, Tome, Beautiful.ai). Students must be able to access the selected tools and AI systems with their user accounts. Additionally, the practical tasks require the use of the Turnitin tool, which students must access using their AAI@Edu.hr electronic identity (e.g. faculty electronic identity).

Evaluation activities in the e-course are supported by the appropriate functionalities of the Loomen system, and no additional technical prerequisites are required. Tests are accessed entirely through a web browser, with no further technical requirements.

Synchronous course activities are conducted using the BigBlueButton videoconferencing platform, which is integrated into the Loomen e-learning system. The technical requirements for participating in synchronous activities include a microphone, headphones and an internet connection (preferably 5 Mbit/s or higher).
