Innovation in Technical Education: The LAMS Platform and Digital Sequences Automotive Workshops

This book explores the transition from traditional instruction to modern Digital Learning Design in Vocational Education and Training (VET), focusing on Automotive Engineering workshops in Vocational Schools (EPAL). It provides a methodological guide for integrating the open-source LAMS (Learning Activity Management System) platform into daily workshop practice. The theoretical framework analyzes core pedagogical pillars: experiential learning, the flipped classroom, problem-based learning, and differentiated instruction. Practically, it demonstrates how high-risk workshop tasks-like engine timing, OBD II diagnostics, and High Voltage EV safety-are transformed into structured, safe digital sequences. Utilizing digital tools like Control Gateways for strict safety compliance and Branching for real-time path personalization, the book shows how to manage intense learning heterogeneity. Ultimately, it redefines the educator's role as a learning designer, advocates for data-driven assessment via Learning Analytics, and offers realistic strategies to overcome infrastructural barriers in public education.
