Abstract

In the field of Computer Networks, perhaps more than in any other scientific area, research is developing rapidly as a result of the continuous production of new scientific data and new technologies. In some cases, as in the case of the “Quick UDP Internet Connections” protocol, the development and consequences of its adoption, evolve at unimaginable speeds, without giving enough time to teachers and curriculum designers to realize the impending changes, even though the use of the protocol has fundamentally changed the way communication protocols work. In this paper, we present a proposal for the updating of the curriculum of the Computer Networks course of Technical Vocational Education and Training in Greece. The specific case works both as a case study and as an example for the immediate treatment of learning objects in the Vocational Education and Training curricula. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
