Fatmaryanti, Siska Desy; Pratiwi, Umi; Akhdinirwanto, Raden Wakhid; Sulisworo, Dwi – International Journal of Evaluation and Research in Education, 2022
Comprehensive monitoring in virtual laboratory learning needs a task model. This model was design based on inquiry skills, social and scientific communication of prospective physics teachers. The development of these three skills is still a problem in recent research on virtual laboratory learning. This research was research and development (RD)…

Barthet, Michelle M. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
COVID-19 has changed about every aspect of life including how we teach in higher education. Laboratory experiments vital for learning hands-on techniques are limited due to social distancing requirements and increased numbers of distance-learning students. The solution to loss of hands-on activities has been to compensate with virtual laboratory…

Gao, Jie; Crossley, Steven P.; Nollert, Matthias U.; Lobban, Lance L.; Papavassiliou, Dimitrios V. – Chemical Engineering Education, 2021
This paper reports an innovative, hybrid teaching model for a junior level lab course. This model leverages in-person lab operation by adding a student-led online learning mode. Both course outcomes and student outcomes were evaluated. Student feedback was collected, and its analysis showed both positive and negative impacts in this hybrid model.…

In a technology-enhanced learning environment and underpinned by a unique hybrid pedagogic model that borrows from gamification, constructivism, and experiential learning approaches, badges were purposefully used to foster engagement. This approach promoted the development of a mindset that identifies and appreciates the worth of a portfolio of…

Euphrasio, P. C. S.; Faria, L. A.; Germano, J. S. E.; Hirata, Daisy – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2020
This article describes the implementation of a remote access experiment, called Web-lab 1553B (Digital Data Bus Lab), for courses in the Avionics Systems Program. Its main objective is to present a study about the use of two rotation model subgroups: 1) rotation laboratory and 2) station rotation. In the "rotation laboratory" subgroup,…

Pellas, Nikolaos; Kazanidis, Ioannis; Konstantinou, Nikolaos; Georgiou, Georgia – Education and Information Technologies, 2017
The present literature review builds on the results of 50 research articles published from 2000 until 2016. All these studies have successfully accomplished various learning tasks in the domain of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education using three-dimensional (3-D) multi-user virtual worlds for Primary, Secondary and…

Priore, Charles F., Jr.; Giannini, John L. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2007
Librarians instruct students where to find information, but rarely demonstrate its management, while faculty have difficulty incorporating real-time laboratory experience with library research. This paper focuses on the development of a hands-on biology laboratory experiment in an introductory course that integrates bibliographic software into the…

Edward, Norrie S. – British Journal of Educational Technology, 1997
Examines computer based simulations of practical laboratory experiments in engineering. Discusses the aims and achievements of lab work (cognitive, process, psychomotor, and affective); types of simulations (model building and behavioral); and the strengths and weaknesses of simulations. Describes the development of a centrifugal pump simulation,…

Gokhale, Anu A. – Journal of Industrial Teacher Education, 1991
Four groups of 24 undergraduates each received the following instruction on logic circuits: (1) lab, then readings; (2) computer simulation, then readings; (3) readings, then lab; and (4) readings, then simulation. Results showed that advance exposure to experiential activity (lab or simulation) aided the learning of unfamiliar technical material…

Michael, Joel A. – Physiologist, 1984
Argues that computer-simulated experiments offer educational tools to foster student development of problem-solving skills without traditional laboratory time and expense. The evolution of the medical physiology course at Rush Medical College is used to illustrate trends in this area. They include experiments on PLATO, and on personal computers.…

Whitman, David L.; Terry, Ronald E. – CoED, 1985
Demonstrating petroleum engineering concepts in undergraduate laboratories often requires expensive and time-consuming experiments. To eliminate these problems, a graphical simulation technique was developed for junior-level laboratories which illustrate vapor-liquid equilibrium and the use of mathematical modeling. A description of this…

Hamza, Khalid; Alhalabi, Bassem; Marcovitz, David M. – 2000
This paper proposes an Internet facility that will authentically provide laboratory experiments remotely. Such a facility is brought to the doors of the distance learner to help provide learning that is comparable to that offered for conventional students. The paper describes the development of a prototype remote laboratory system, including…
