Abstract
The study introduces the approach of creating a virtual laboratory for performing laboratory works with remote access. The proposed virtual lab can be used for distance learning and is an extension of the functionality of the previously created virtual workshop. This virtual laboratory with remote access is an alternative to laboratory works performed with real experimental equipment and provides an opportunity to gain skills in operation with measuring microwave equipment without giving classes in educational laboratories. The results of testing virtual lab works with remote access in educational radiophysics laboratories are presented.
Highlights
Educational programs of many technical specialties include practical classes in educational laboratories
According to the results of the survey among students, most of them noted that performing virtual lab works clearly shows the essence of physical processes and the operation principle of the studied microwave devices
They pointed out that virtual measuring instruments have almost full similarity with real devices terms of the user interface well as functioning and that virtual lab works allowed them to understand and master the principle of measurement using a variety of microwave measurement devices
Summary
Educational programs of many technical specialties include practical classes in educational laboratories. Distance learning which requires laboratory workshops to be carried out remotely has gained a lot of popularity in higher education [5,6,7, 12,13,14,15]. The use of Internet technologies in the computer-based education forms the concept of distance learning due to which students can have online access to courses at any time and from any place, reducing the cost of educational resources. Considering the above, the development and implementation of remote laboratory works aimed at studying the observed physical processes, as well as mastering the techniques of working with modern measuring equipment is in high demand today. The proposed client-server architecture of the virtual laboratory makes it possible to create configurable and expandable virtual laboratories designed to study microwave devices and gain skills in iperation with real microwave measuring equipment
