13. Page 13 Dieter Mueller-Ehrhard Duties in Internet Services (3) Setting up a new DSLAM ???

14. Page 14 Dieter Mueller-Ehrhard Exploration Develop our DACUM for „Information and Media Technologies“ Define duties Define tasks Define necessary skills Define possible laboratory experiments helpful to achieve goals

15. Page 15 Dieter Mueller-Ehrhard Suggestions for exams (interim solution) Try to find a practical situation in business Break situation up into different aspects Electronics Maths Technical drawing Formulate questions which show that student can apply his knowledge and skills To a different situation

16. Page 16 Dieter Mueller-Ehrhard Suggestions on focal education Information and Media Technologies is rather general Could be „specialized“ in second year into IMT-Technician LAN and Server Technologies (focus: LAN) IMT-Technician Mobile Communnications(focus: Mobile) IMT-Technician Software Installation and Support (fous: Software) IMT-Technician

17. Page 17 Dieter Mueller-Ehrhard Suggestions for lab-training Define in list What aspects of curriculum Can be „enhanced“ by what lab-experiment Example: Power Supply Open a simple power supply e.g. Battery-loader Define parts in respect to their function Make measurements showing transfer from 220V AC to 12V / DC

18. Page 18 Dieter Mueller-Ehrhard Suggestions for software (1) Software can help to understand theory better... but.. The following needs to be kept in mind: „Hands on“ is always better than software In software it always „works“ in hardware faults are sometimes hard to find Hardware needs mostly more money and space Software can also be used on own PC /laptop at home

19. Page 19 Dieter Mueller-Ehrhard Suggestions for software (2) Networks Simulation of networks: Cisco Packet Tracer complete visual simulation of networksCisco Packet Tracer Dynamips emulates cisco routersDynamips Tracking of LAN networks (sniffing) Wiresharkup to date network snifferWireshark Packetyzer other network snifferPacketyzer Netstumbler for WLANNetstumbler
