NEW! The E-model
helps the work of the teacher more than any previous learning system.
MIXI
The MIXI Learning System has been used in several technical fields
of vocational education. The MIXI applications
run on the three MIXI models.

Applications
Our applications cover the following three fields of vocational education
We recommend using our test system,
MIXI-Quiz,
in every educational field.
Using any of the applications requires at least one of the
hardware Models.
Methodology
Along with our applications, we deliver teachers' and students' methodology guides.
Recently, we make these methodology guides in electronic form,
in the framework of E-vocational education.
Compared to former school equipment the MIXI Learning System represents
a new generation. A generation that allows
teachers to use the top-down teaching method
and to initate projects.
Models
The hardware models of our MIXI Learning System are necessary to use our
Applications. The three hardware models are
The
External devices extend
the services of these models even further.
Applications > Informatics
Using our applications, we help teach and understand hardware and
software aspects of computers and telecommunication devices.
Components and complex systems are both realized by our applications,
such as
Other applications in the field of informatics are
Applications > Digital electronics
Our applications help understand each segment of digital
electronics ranging from the simplest components to the most
complex systems. Some examples for simple components are
Complex components are
Simple digital systems are, e.g.
more complex systems are
Other applications in the field of digital electronics are
Applications > Vehicle electronics and process control
We suggest using
in teaching vehicle electronics.
The following applications also help teach automation and mechatronics:
The following applications help teach automation:
Other applications in the field of Vehicle electronics and process control are
Methodology > Teachers'
The central teachers' methodology helps use the Learning System in its
entirety. The teachers' guide for each application contains
the solutions of the measurement exercises, the usage
description of the application in each professional field, and
technical information necessary for student projects.
Methodology > Students'
The central students' guide contains theoretical knowledge related
to our applications, which is hard to be found even in textbooks and
technical papers. The students' guide for each application contains
the measurement exercises and the theoretical and practical knowledge
necessary to complete them.
E-vocational > E-guide
In order to teach the leading edge of technology,
it is necessary to use theoretical knowledge, which is hard to find in textbooks.
The most flexible way to provide this kind of knowledge to students with
various levels of experience is an electronic book. In addition to
generic and field-specific knowledge, our electronic book also contains
a Mini-Encyclopedia for computers and some technical papers.
The book is accessed with a browser and it also contains an advanced search engine.
E-vocational > E-learning
With the help of our multimedia-illustrated programs, students
learn theory and practice according to their own level of knowledge.
This is realized by testing their knowledge at the beginning, and
during the learning process regularly. Theory and measurements are taught
by mimicking reality – using simulation.
We offer the following applications on this platform.
E-vocational > E-teaching
The teacher can follow the work completed by the student
in the E-Learning program based on result files,
with which it is impossible to tamper.
The teacher can modify the test requirements, review
the progress (even in the form of distance learning), and
summarize the results.
Models > S-model
The base hardware of our Learning System for students
operates applications developed earlier and applications to be developed
later. With the help of the mask, it recognizes each application adaptively.
Support for student projects is present.
Models > T-model
The base hardware of our Learning System helps teachers
demonstrate each application. For the sake of demonstration efficiency,
it takes only a couple of seconds to install an application.
Models > T&S-model
We recommend this model especially for the training places with
small groups. It was developed by unifying the teachers' (T-model)
with the students' (S-model).
Models > External devices
The external connectable units enable a more efficient use of
the various applications and the same hardware models of our Learning System.
The Multi I/O adapter extends
the services of the Model of a Telephone Exchange,
and the Heating Demonstrator
is able to generate a current of several tens of Amps.
Here follows the description of our external connectable units divided into technical fields:
E-model
Unifying the E-vocational training and the models of the
Learning System with the help of the MIXI Interface
to a new educational model. The E-Learning simulation programs
and the models build up an emulation-based integrated Learning System,
which substitutes reality with another reality.
We offer the following applications on this platform.

Homepage
Sitemap
Detailed and up-to-date information is available from our homepage.
In addition to answers to questions about theory and practice,
it contains solutions to problems of methodology
as well. On the News page,
developments and exhibitions are announced. It is worth
studying the pages about downloadable software as well.
Although the offline version of our homepage is less up-to-date than the online
one, and it does not point to the pages requiring internet connection,
it can still tell you a great deal about our Learning System.
The offline version is freely
available
from our online homepage and on the CD-ROM containing our pieces of software.

Take a look at our software by using the demo version. The hardware
independent demo programs have limited functionality,

The other demo programs are limited only in their need for a connection to the MIXI
hardware, such as

Some of our computer programs extend the basic services of some applications, such as
Other applications do not even operate without the corresponding programs, such as
The program we supply to the application of the subject-independent knowledge test
helps the work of the teacher even without the application.

Contact > Courses for Teachers
It is thanks to our Teachers that the Learning System was born,
has been developed and applied efficiently. The success of
our Learning System depends crucially on the
theoretical knowledge and professional skills of our Teachers,
therefore we consider it one of our main tasks to help develop
the knowledge of Teachers. We give courses
for free when delivering the MIXI Learning System, and
other courses on request. The curriculum
contains pieces of the theory of teaching aids, demonstration of the
hardware architecture of the Learning System,
presentation of the state of the art related to our
applications, as well as using the Learning System in practice.
In addition to the courses, we are happy to answer questions
and to receive suggestions by means
of our mailing lists, e-mail, phone, snail-mail as well as
personally at our site.
