h will subsequently be used for printed textbooks in Slovak and English, an electronic testing and educational online system, and multimedia study materials created within the framework of a virtual microscopic laboratory for e-learning in the field of industrial feeds and diets for companion animals for the new study program Veterinary Nurse for teaching students in Slovak and English. a/ The created study material, written in Slovak and English, will be focused in the theoretical part on the characteristics of basic raw materials used for the industrial production of feeds and diets for companion animals, the technology of production of dry, wet and semi-wet feeds and a description of diets for various categories. The safety aspects of their processing and production with the aim of positively influencing the physiology, nutrition and health of the macroorganism will be an important part. The practical part will include laboratory procedures designed to determine biological and nutritional parameters in industrial feeds. b/ The educational material will include a testing and educational system for studying the abovementioned issues in the LMS environment Moodle and accessible online at https://moodle.uvlf.sk. c/ Image materials of feed preparations and their components created by light microscopy will enable e-learning studies within the virtual microscopic laboratory. d/ Electronic versions of study texts will be used to create printed university textbooks. Electronic texts, electronic testing and education system, as well as the virtual microscopic laboratory will be usable for e-learning in Slovak and English and will be available on the university server for registered students and also on the provider\\\'s created website with public online connection for unregistered and handicapped students.
