Abstract
Remote labs that enable students to conduct real-world experiments at a distance using a computer and Web-based tools can be the only realistic method of performing practical experiments in the context of distance learning.
 eSience Tempus project "Maghreb Network of remote labs" offers an innovative pedagogical approach which integrates eLearning and is complementary to classroom learning. The main objective of this project is to create an efficient remote labs network in the Maghreb region for the modernization of higher education in technological sciences. 
 The current paper summarizes the work carried out on a heat exchanger bench to be fully accessed and controlled remotely. Through this new device a student of Mechanical Engineering is introduced to many fundamental aspects of heat transfer.
Highlights
The Web has spurred our imagination as to how education can be radically transformed and enhanced through the adoption of ICT
As a partner of this project, we had to adapt and develop distant access solutions for two remote labs to allow students to perform practical experiments on heat transfer and mechanical vibration. These two remote labs will be a part of the Maghreb Network of remote labs
At the Higher Institute of Industrial Systems of Gabes (ISSIG), as a partner of the e-Sience Tempus project, we adapted and developed distant access solutions for two remote labs to allow students to perform practical experiments on heat transfer and mechanical vibration. These two remote labs are directly accessible through the ISSIG e-Lab server
Summary
While the use of Web-based education to date has seen as a significant innovation, it has not had the revolutionary impact originally envisioned and has certainly not displaced the traditional settings of classrooms, schools, colleges and universities [1], especially in educational laboratories Those practical educational aspects need more and more development. As a partner of this project, we had to adapt and develop distant access solutions for two remote labs to allow students to perform practical experiments on heat transfer and mechanical vibration. These two remote labs will be a part of the Maghreb Network of remote labs.
