CREATING MODEL EDUCATIONAL PROCESSES USING PETRI NETS IMPLEMENTED IN THE LMS

Information and knowledge society, in which we live, is built on the knowledge and skills applied in cooperation networks. For the description of these actions process models are profitably used. Introduction and administration of any processes requires description of their solution, inspection, monitoring, optimization and first of all their simple formulation, whereby it is very important to express their logic. The article deals with modelling and subsequent simulation of education processes in Petri nets implemented into the environment of the learning management system (LMS). The aim of the LMS system for the teaching control is to regulate the communication according to the student's knowledge and ability and thus modify the amount and sophistication of submitted materials for the student. Using the constituted model we shall be able to create electronic courses, so these models can serve as a prototype for creating further electronic courses in the environments of the LMS.
