A Holistic Didactical Approach for Industrial Logistics Engineering Education in the LOGILAB at the Montanuniversitaet Leoben

摘要

The successful implementation of Industry 4.0 initiatives can only be established by focusing on a multitude of complex and partially interdepending requirements and enabling factors. Thereby, the education and further training of employees can be seen as one of the major prerequisites to understand, handle, and further develop existing Industry 4.0 concepts and technologies. This paper reviews the current state of the art regarding the usage of learning labs, as modern teaching and learning methods, for industrial logistics engineering education from a holistic perspective. Moreover, the authors discuss learning within the framework of action-based learning approaches as a reflected form of meaningful social interaction and introduce an exemplary system-theoretical and constructivist approach based on the LOGILAB at the Montanuniversitaet Leoben.
