“…Virtual laboratories are software simulation programs in which learners carry out experiments using a computer . These laboratories have the advantage that variables can be assigned many values; they are also accurate, time-and cost-effective, and experiments can be repeated easily (Balamuralithara and Woods 2009;de Jong et al 2013;Gomes and Bogosyan 2009;Schiffhauer et al 2012, April). The virtual laboratory used in the current study covered the physics topics of buoyancy and Archimedes' principle.…”

Inquiry learning is an educational approach in which learners actively construct knowledge and in which performing investigations and conducting experiments is central. To support learners in designing informative experiments we created a scaffold, the Experiment Design Tool (EDT), that provided learners with a step-by-step structure to select variables and to assign values to these variables, together with offering built-in heuristics for experiment design. To further structure the students' approach, the EDT was offered within a set of detailed research questions which again were grouped under a set of broader research questions. Learning results for learners who worked with the EDT were compared to results for learners in two control conditions. In the first control condition, learners received only the detailed research questions and not the EDT; in the second control condition, learners received only the limited set of general research questions. In all conditions, learners conducted their experiments in an online learning environment about the physics topic of Archimedes' principle. Conceptual knowledge was measured before and after the intervention using parallel forms of a knowledge test. Overall results showed significant learning gains in all three conditions, but no significant differences between conditions. However, learners who started with low prior knowledge showed a significantly higher learning gain in the EDT condition than in the two control conditions. This result indicates that the effect of providing learners with scaffolds does not follow a ''one-

“…Application field of remote laboratories (RL) [1][2][3][4][5] in the engineering education process is continuously expanding. Along with the subjects that study operation principles and calculation methods of technical devices, it is prospective to use RL in disciplines studying the design principles of these devices and systems based on them, including structure synthesis of these systems.…”

Abstract-This paper present models of studied objects with the help of remote laboratories containing physical and software components. These hybrid models were described as an integrated system with a hierarchy of controls. The functional structure of hybrid models was formalized using set theory. There are described examples of hybrid models, which software component contains subsystems of virtual models, models of the "hidden" part, the technical state models and environment models of the studied object. There are considered teaching scenarios of hybrid models application. It was given an example of design teaching scenario of diagnostic subsystem of a traffic light.Index Terms-Hybrid models; integrated system; remote laboratory; set-theoretic model; teaching scenario of learning.

“…The acquisition of practical skills and the application of theoretical concepts and principles to perform real experiment are very important in engineering learning. Therefore, the use of remote laboratories as an educational resource in engineering education is undergoing a huge expansion in recent years [1]. Following this trend the Technical University of Madrid is developing virtual and remote laboratories in several topics seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its educational processes.…”

Abstract-This paper briefly presents some relevant aspects of an innovative educational resource that allows real experimentation through Internet in the area of electronics. The developed platform, named eLab3D, is based in a 3D environment in which the user can conduct all the operations that he/she would carried out in a hands-on laboratory. The authors intend to demonstrate the basic operation of the platform to perform electronics experiments.
