Educational software for automotive electrical circuits

Changes in production models and advances in automotive technology have led to vehicles with complex technology being more in need of specialised labour in the car maintenance market. Electricity and electronics are examples of technologies that are increasingly present in a complex way in motor vehicles. These changes brought about by the insertion of new technologies in cars have had a direct impact on vocational training in automotive maintenance. The schools' reflections have resulted in monitoring teaching techniques, adapting an efficient way of teaching this technology in a simpler language and preparing a workforce suited to the new demands of the market, capable of facing these new challenges in vehicle maintenance. Among the many learning problems that exist in the area of automotive maintenance, the difficulty in learning electricity and the electrical circuits of the car can be considered a very worrying issue for teachers of vocational courses and automotive maintenance technicians who are looking into the matter and seeking alternatives to alleviate the problem.
