Abstract-The use of remote labs in undergraduate courses has been reported in literature several times since the mid 90's. Nevertheless, very few articles present results about the learning gains obtained by students using them, especially with a large number of students, thus suggesting a lack of data concerning their pedagogical effectiveness. This paper addresses such a gap by presenting some preliminary results concerning the use of a remote laboratory, known as VISIR, in a large undergraduate course on Applied Physics, with over 500 students enrolled.

“…The experiments under 'remote panel' [24] were designed to provide remote access to a single user at a time. Remote experimentation techniques have aided to overcome some laboratory teaching issues faced by student and teacher communities [27]. Keeping internet connectivity and access to pre-installed plugins in consideration, a user-friendly interface ( Figure 1B) was designed for the quick access of the equipment.…”

“…To estimate relative advantage of the use of remote labs questions on learning quality (LQ), ease of use (EU), Understandability (US), remembering concepts (RC) and overall advantage (OA) were used in the feedback survey [27]. Questionnaire included in the feedback survey were shown (see Table III) Remote labs will make it easier to do my studies (EU).…”

Abstract-ICT-enabled virtual and remote labs have become a platform augmenting user engagement in blended education scenarios enhancing University education in rural India. A novel trend is the use of remote laboratories as learning and teaching tools in classrooms and elsewhere. This paper reports case studies based on our deployment of 20 web-based virtual labs with more than 170+ online experiments in Biotechnology and Biomedical engineering discipline with content for undergraduate and postgraduate education. Via hands-on workshops and direct feedback using questionnaires, we studied the role of remote lab experiments as learning and teaching tools. Although less reliable than direct feedback, we also included online feedback to perceive blended and remote learning styles among various users. Student and teacher user groups suggested significant usage adaptability of experimental process and indicated usage of remote labs as supplementary tools for complementing laboratory education. Usage analysis implicated the role of online labs as interactive textbooks augmenting student interaction and positive correlates to learning.

“…Cooper and Ferreira note about remote experimentation, "it appears to offer a simple solution to problems of distance, collaboration, expensive equipment, and limited availability." [8]. Gravier et al further report other expectations in lab sharing, which are non-monetary and apply quite well for research applications, like "security", "observability", "dangerousness", "accessibility" and "availability" [7].…”
