Design of a virtual laboratory for teaching electric machinery

Abstract

According to the needs of Distancelearning been growing up. Network-learning service is more complicated than ever. It's a new trend of using computer-assisted technique for the teaching of experiments. By this way, we reduce the concern of safety while operation and instrument costs. Virtual Environment has reality and interaction performance. Also distributed virtual environment provides ability that multiple users could join in the same session. In our study, we determine the construction, movement and curriculum of virtual environment in the teaching of electric machinery experiments. After that we set up a virtual laboratory with reality, interaction and flexibility. In the laboratory, human-computer interaction and human-human interaction are provided for teachers and students, they could make representation, discussion and control to the machinery. As above, we approach the design of new trend of teaching experiments, also, we had established a more friendly and completely testbed.

Virtual Laboratory Learning Environment: VLLE on Metaverse for University in Thailand

“…In order to develop VLLE on metaverse, the researchers employed the theories of the ADDIE model and the five steps of work process [19], i.e., login, navigation, interaction, evaluation, and logout, as a guideline for development so that VLLE on metaverse could support the learning as much as possible. Additionally, a 3D virtual media development program, Blender, was employed and the VRChat application was also used as a medium to simulate the real situations and allow users to have engagement with learning media in the developed virtual environment.…”

“…The research methodology is based on the theories of design and development of multimedia materials and animation [18], the theories of the ADDIE model [16], [17], and the five steps of work process [19]. The methodology can be summarised by the following four phases.…”

A Systematic Framework of Virtual Laboratories Using Mobile Agent and Design Pattern Technologies

“…There are many research areas related to our work, such as virtual laboratory, e-learning, mobile agents, wrappers and software patterns. With the growth of network technology and the increasing popularity of new learning methods, more and more researches focus on the virtual laboratory and e-learning (Benmohamed et al, 2005;Bermejo, 2005;Chang et al, 2000;Dow et al, 2006;Gomez et al, 2000;Jiang et al, 2001;Jou, 2005;Muzak et al, 2000;Tzeng et al, 2000). The virtual laboratory proposed by Muzak et al (2000) focuses on digital computers and is based on the client/server computing paradigm.…”

Online educational platform for experiment-based training and updating of SCADA operators

“…For this SG area it is important for the user of the virtual laboratory to learn how to master control electronics, power electronics, electrical machines and the electrical networks' high power equipment [11]. For this purpose there were developed several virtual laboratory platforms with important parts of instrumentation, electric signal acquisition and processing [12][13][14][15][16][17].…”
