MROL 2020

The Scope of MROL

Nowadays, an effective and promising approach to open pedagogical systems design is the use of the cloud computing technologies to provide ICT support for the functioning and development of the computer-based educational and research environment. Innovative technological solutions for learning environment organisation and design using cloud computing (CC) and ICT outsourcing show promise and usefulness. The challenges of making the ICT infrastructure of the university environment fit the needs of its users, taking maximum advantage of modern network technologies, and ensuring the best pedagogical outcomes leads to the search for the most reasonable ways of its modernization.

The open science processes are related to open access to research data, open discussion and analysis of research results and open communication with society. To support these processes, the corporate or hybrid cloud-based university environments are useful as the essential components (accomplishments) for the resources of the various public information networks such as research infrastructures and social networks. Thus, the analysis of the principles and essential features of the structure and design of the cloud- based learning and research university environment becomes additionally valuable because of its the open science processes support. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Cloud-based Educational and Research Environment Design
• ICT and Methods of Distance and Enhanced Learning
• Smart-systems: Models, Technologies and Resources – STEM Education, Learning Robotics, Knowledge Extraction, Engineering and Management, Internet of Things for Open Learning
• Methods, Technologies and Resources for Virtual and Remote Laboratories, Virtual and Augmented Reality in Open Learning,
• ICT Competence in Open Systems Design and Development
• Quality Assurance of ICT Education: Methods, Resources and Technologies
• Research Infrastructures for Open Science
• Mobile Resources and Ubiquitous Computing in Open Education
• Multimedia, Simulation, Virtualization and Open Learning Resources
• Data Computing for Open Education and Research etc.
