The target of this work is to promote the experimental works via internet within the different laboratories of Hassan 1st University in Settat and our partners in eSiense group within the frame of Tempus project.
Tempus project aims to create a series of remote laboratories in Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria in cooperation with France, Austria, Romania and Greece and it is financed by the European Union.
In order to share knowledge, Morocco and these universities are working together in a collective work program in order to create leading laboratories, aiming to put into practice the experimental works in electrical engineering, that are accessible through internet. These experimental works tend to share the equipments existing in every University so as to make them possible for other universities to benefit from them.
This leading project will be generalized afterwards in order to engulf all the other fields, including different manipulations of measuring powers using electromechanical machines and measures concerning instruments.
This paper focuses on the implementation of the first remote laboratory in Hassan 1st University in morocco. It concerns the determination of the characteristics of the synchronous machine. For this, student accesses to our platform via internet to determine the parameters in Open Circuit characteristics OCC, Short circuit characteristics SCC and then the determination of the synchronous reactance Xs.
The current enthusiasm of generations of students for video games and the marked interest of training institutions for the use of playful strategies, which facilitate learning, has encouraged the development and use of formative games called Serious Games. The main aim behind these games is not to substitute the traditional training mode, but to complement it by making the learner benefit from the interactivity and ergonomics of the graphical interfaces offered by a SG.
So far, much research work has focused on the benefits that SGs can bring to a training envi-ronment. However, little has been done in terms of evaluating an SG, not as a training tool but as the outcome of a development project of a tool meant for use in a learning context.
The purpose of this paper is to propose an evaluation tool of a SG designed in terms of four necessary dimensions that a SG should have in order to fulfill the task for which it was designed. These four dimensions are represented in terms of measurement criteria and prioritized according to the Fuzzy-AHP method « Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process ».
This model was tested on an SG validated by an educational committee and used by biology students in Hassan II University, Ben M'Sik Faculty of Sciences. The results obtained show the quality and relevance of the evaluation of the proposed tool.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
