The present state of information communication technology makes it possible to devise and run computer-based e-laboratories accessible to any user with a connection to the Internet, equipped with very simple technical means and making full use of web services. Thus, the way is open for a new strategy of physics education with strongly global features, based on experiment and experimentation. We name this strategy integrated e-learning, and remote experiments across the Internet are the foundation for this strategy. We present both pedagogical and technical reasoning for the remote experiments and outline a simple system based on a server–client approach, and on web services and Java applets. We give here an outline of the prospective remote laboratory system with data transfer using the Internet School Experimental System (ISES) as hardware and ISES WEB Control kit as software. This approach enables the simple construction of remote experiments without building any hardware and virtually no programming, using a paste and copy approach with typical prebuilt blocks such as a camera view, controls, graphs, displays, etc. We have set up and operate at present seven experiments, running round the clock, with more than 12 000 connections since 2005. The experiments are widely used in practical teaching of both university and secondary level physics. The recording of the detailed steps the experimentor takes during the measurement enables detailed study of the psychological aspects of running the experiments. The system is ready for a network of universities to start covering the basic set of physics experiments. In conclusion we summarize the results achieved and experiences of using remote experiments built on the ISES hardware system.
Paper presents the contribution to the building of remote e-laboratories based on physical software ISES (Internet School Experimental System). The control system is an invariable finite-state machine (FSM) for which the control file and corresponding web page are built automatically for the particular experiment by plug and play approach using the screen questionnaire similar to the expert systems by a new environment -EASY REMOTE ISES. The system is aimed at the wide shift of interested in the remote experimentation especially at schools and universities to help disseminate elaboratories among the wider population.
Abstract-The recent progress in REMLABNET (www.remlabnet.eu ), namely its LTI Federation possibilities with other systems and multiparameter simulations embedded, is presented together with the main recent features of REMLABNET (as a Remote Laboratory Management System). At present the available real remote experiments have been provided for Go-Lab EU FP 7 project. The system with about 20 remote experiments has been with success running since 2013 and has been since constantly improved thanks to the project of the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) -"SCOPES".
