Working towards a global laboratory

Abstract

is infinite." I tried to explain that she was confusing energy and power. As I pointed out, a prize of £1 million might sound exciting, but not if it is paid at the rate of just £1 a month.

Remote teaching experiments on magnetic domains in thin films

“…In summary, let us call all world laboratories to create similar local Web-laboratories with the goal to build the global web-laboratory in the nearest future [1]. An example of a cooperation between different universities in the design of a remotely-controlled laboratory has been described in [10,[16][17][18][19].…”

“…Also such web-based laboratories may be very attractive for many talents who live far from university centres. Providing an additional and powerful channel of the transfer of knowledge, the GloLab could provide contributions to different levels of education [20,21].…”

“…s Vp/d. Finally, collecting and inserting the obtained expressions for E w and E d into equation (1), one can arrive at…”

“…There is no doubt that in the near future the teaching of physics processes will be somehow adapted to these new facilities. The creation of a global network providing teaching and scientific on-line experiments has now become a reality [1]. Now the teaching of physics undergoes significant changes which reflect recent advances in educational technologies: computer-based instructional media, web-based instruction, online courses, simulations, computing software and classroom management software [2,3].…”

GloLab: creating a global Internet-accessible laboratory

“…Finding suitable answers to these and other questions will require a global commitment. This paper shows one example of a remote experiment-magnetism by Internet [4]-an improved version of an experiment first constructed for the Congress of Polish Physicists in 1999. A thin garnet film is the object of the proposed study.…”
