The emergence of virtual classrooms has deeply impacted and transformed the educational methodologies and protocols, in particular since the dawn of the COVID19 pandemic. This sudden change from on-campus to virtual learning spaces has also presented a unique opportunity to teach locally and reach globally. The following paper aims to present a pilot educational framework stimulating distributed learning through prototyping using remotely controlled mechanical systems, not only as a transitory state of educational programs moving to online programs due to the current pandemic but as a viable alternative.
