The Lviv Polytechnic National University is participating in the international educational project "Open Educational Resources and Ukraine: Informatics" (OER with Ukraine Informatics) within the DAAD project program "Ukraine Digital: Ensuring Academic Success in Times of Crisis. Open Educational Resources and Ukraine: Informatics."
The project leader from our university is Professor Nataliia Chukhrai, Vice-Rector for Scientific and Pedagogical Work and International Relations. Faculty members from the Department of Artificial Intelligence Systems and the Department of Information Systems and Networks of the Institute of Computer Sciences and Information Technologies are involved in the project. Together with other project participants — lecturers and researchers from universities in Kharkiv, Kyiv, and Dnipro — the university is preparing educational materials, including over fifty video lectures in the field of computer science. These lectures are published in open access by the project partner, the German National Library of Science and Technology, on its portal. The video lectures are subtitled in Ukrainian and English, providing learners with the flexibility to study at their convenience.
The project runs until December 2023, and a midterm report on the results of the first six months of training activities was recently presented in Hanover, Germany, with participation from Tetiana Shestakevych, Associate Professor at the Department of Information Systems and Networks.
The training included familiarization with e-preservation projects for Ukrainian open access journals in areas relevant to the focus of the German National Library of Science and Technology and the University Library of Leibniz University Hannover; the work of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, and the Institute of Photogrammetry and GeoInformation of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz University Hannover, as well as the L3S Research Center – a German hub for digital transformation and the development of artificial intelligence methods.
Project participants explored potential avenues for scientific and academic collaboration with national and international researchers at the International Office of Leibniz University Hannover.
