The Faculty
of Geodesy has started to use information technologies very early.
The first Web pages of the Faculty were installed in 1996 on the
public computer of the University Computer Center. In the meantime,
the Faculty got its own Web server (geodet.geof.hr) and that has
significantly increased the usage of network services. The new
educational plan and program is extensively turned to new technologies.
The establishment of LAN on Faculty has activated further acquisition
of Web contents for students. All students build their own Web
pages during exercises on college Geoinformatics II. For the students
of II., III. and IV. year at the subject-oriented field "Engineering
surveying and spatial information management" there are different
literatures on Web (e.g. books, seminar works, diploma works).
The distant view of student's examination results is possible.
Also, some exercises from different colleges on the subject-oriented
field are based on network resources. Communication with users
is accomplished through a Web interface that enables users to
ask questions, give suggestions, comments etc. It is very important
for the faculty staff to constantly be in touch with new technologies
and to build them in education as well as possible.
