Evaluation of Cloud-based Open Educational Resources for Teaching Microelectronics

As participant of an Erasmus+ Project called MECA (Micro Electronics Cloud Alliance) our team together with Lightware Visual Engineering Company aims to build and host one active node of a Europe wide cloud platform to support the education in the field of microelectronics. In the framework of MECA, open educational resources and learning materials were developed by our team. The integration of the MECA platform and materials into the courses, pilot test regarding its application for self-study via remote access, and the evaluation of the feedback of the participating students is discussed in the paper. The positive feedback encourages us to offer our courses for inclusion into the catalogues of an on-line education center in Hungary and also of the world's leading Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) providers. This will help to disseminate the information about our courses and attract more students to take the courses on-line.
