DISTANCE LEARNING IN LABORATORY SESSIONS |

- Abstract:
- The incoming technologies allowing for a massive use of remote driven instruments could improve the quality of the experiments in laboratory sessions, especially for what concerns the very specific high level classes. Moreover, taking into account the large number of students, the availability of the lab can be greatly extended. In order to give flexibility and high performances to the educational tool a user friendly virtual instrument has been realised allowing distance learning. Some basic experiments can be performed by the user, namely the analysis of both the RC and the RLC circuits, frequency measurements and also measurements on audio-frequency amplifiers. Indeed, the user can make the choice of the experiment which he is interested in and can choose the particular procedure among the implemented ones. By using the adopted procedure the user can carry out a proper training without loosing the contact with real instruments. In order to emphasize the features of the implemented system some examples are presented. A 'presence effect' will be added in the next future, by using a web camera in the lab.
