摘要: 93 contents either can be used in the original version as proposed by the experts, or individually adapted by the lecturer. In addition, well-elaborated visualizations support the learning process by either summarizing important contents or explaining complex issues. The integration of practical examples from the area of ICT standardization makes the topic accessible to interested lecturers and students. Students can also apply or reflect on the acquired knowledge from a practical viewpoint by using the case studies described in the textbook. A consistent design has been applied throughout all developed materials to increase the attractiveness.A literature analysis as well as an exploratory study on education about standardization in ICT have been conducted before starting the development of the teaching materials. This approach was adopted for collecting actual and fundamental indications to better fit the teaching materials to the actual needs in practice. In total, 26 standardization practitioners, researchers and lecturers have been interviewed to identify relevant topics and trends in ICT standardization. Best practices in education as well as the main barriers for an effective integration of standards education into academic curricula have been identified. The collected data provided a solid basis for the development of attractive and up-to-date teaching materials to advance education about standardization, especially for ICT sector.
