9th National Conference on e-Learning at Higher Institutions

On 1 September 2022, Dr Valentina Georgieva and Col Petko Dimov participated in the 9th National Conference on e-Learning at Higher Institutions, organised by the National Centre for Distance Learning and the Univeristy of Economics Varna.

They gave a presentation “Development of a platform for hybrid English language training of security professionals” which will be published in American Institute of Physics Conference Proceedings (http://aip.scitation.org/toc/apc/1789/1), which is indexed in Web of Science and Scopus.

The presentation focused primarily on the results of the work on Intellectual Output (IO) 3 of the HELPSec project, i. e. development of a new generation hybrid web-based system that integrates the curricula (IO 1) and the newly designed interactive materials (IO 2) of the three project partners. The presenters underlined the fact that the suggested technical solutions of the HELPSec project successfully combines all types of modern educational software to create a joint web-based platform for hybrid English learning by security professionals. The designed platform can significantly improve teaching methods, learning effectiveness and thus can increase the motivation of learners to improve their reading, writing, listening and speaking skills in the process of learning specialized English.
