The key advantages of the developed e-guide are:
− quick search for information, easy access from any gadgets and the possibility of an individual learning trajectory (distance learning);
− ensuring inclusive education for people with special needs;
− easy perception of the material due to the structured presentation of information, the use of infographics, diagrams, tables, pictograms and color highlighting;
− the ability to view video materials about technological processes of advanced enterprises in the industry in Ukraine and foreign partner enterprises using a system of QR codes (for the printed version) or electronic links (for the electronic version);
− availability of a presentation for each topic, questions for sections and test tasks;
− availability of reference information and documentation from operating enterprises in the industry.
The results of the testing of the developed e-manual clearly demonstrated an improvement in the level of student success in groups that used the e-manual during their studies, which confirms the increase in the level of mastery of professional competencies by higher education students.
Taking this opportunity, the authors of the work expressed their sincere gratitude to the administration of Kyiv National University of Technologies and Design, the heads of the Faculty of Arts and Fashion, and personally to the head of the Research Department of KNUTD, Liudmyla Halavska, Doctor of Science, Professor, for systematic support of innovative educational projects at the University, which is a necessary condition for the creation and implementation of high-quality electronic textbooks in technical disciplines.
