Application of a web-based remote virtual laboratory on innovative teaching of electronic circuits

This paper describes the application of a web-based remote virtual laboratory platform in the innovative teaching process of electrical and electronic engineering in a college in China. The paper first briefly introduces the project background and the way of constructing the remote virtual experiment platform by using the LabVIEW software. Then, it presents the survey result of using the remote virtual experiment platform from the participants and the performance result from the experimental and control groups. The result shows that this platform provides students with an easy and convenient way to preview experiments. Students can have a better understanding on the circuit after using the platform. Also, they take less time to complete real experiments.
