“…Through these laboratories, the appropriate use of equipment and their assembly can easily be performed and effective in time management, and students can repeat any practical task without the waste of any equipment [24]. It helps for assessing the performance of students in crowded groups during practical work, and the maintenance of these laboratories is also inexpensive [25]. Additionally, virtual laboratories are more beneficial when performing high-risk experiments, which are very dangerous to perform and need highly protective measures in physical laboratories [26].…”

The cutting-edge technology of virtual reality has changed almost every aspect of life in e-commerce, engineering, medicine, and entertainment. This technology has also made its way to the field of education in the form of virtual laboratories. A lack of student engagement and interest towards STEM subjects is reported in the literature. Several studies have been conducted to evaluate virtual reality in education, but these studies are limited in terms of participants and subject coverage. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of virtual laboratories to develop student’s practical learning skills for secondary school physics. For this purpose, a desktop-based virtual laboratory application was developed based on the guidelines extracted from the literature. A user study was adopted as the main research method, and it was conducted with 184 students of 4 different schools. In each school, students were divided into two groups: experimental (used the virtual laboratory application) and control (used a physical laboratory). The data were collected through an academic quiz conducted at the end of the study. The mean score of the experimental group was 7.16, compared with 5.87 for the control group. The results revealed that the students’ learning using the virtual laboratory application was better compared with the control group. Interestingly, there was no significant difference in the performance of boys and girls in both groups. The usability questionnaire was also completed by 92 students of the experimental group to assess the application interface. The mean score was 73.5 (above average) with an internal consistency of 0.76. The participants found the virtual laboratory application to be user-friendly, easy to use, and supportive in learning.

“…A partir del análisis documental llevado a cabo, el presente estudio mostró que el uso del software de simulación es de gran ayuda en la educación, presencial y distancia (Basri & Siam, 2018;Bojović et al, 2020;Farid et al, 2018;Laeeq & Memon, 2018;(Romero-Rodriguez et al, 2020). Entre las herramientas de simulación, en el ámbito de la ingeniería electrónica, las más usadas para implementación de circuitos son: Multisim, Proteus y Labview (Asparuhova et al, 2018;Dak et al, 2018;Kavianpour, 2019;Lilyanova, 2019;Marianoga & Palczynska, 2018;Srikanth et al, 2019;Tortoreli et al, 2017); Tanto Multisim como Proteus, permiten el desarrollo de diversas prácticas de laboratorio y analizar los resultados de las mismas. Con el análisis realizado, se observó que la aplicación de estos dos softwares está enfocada en la realización de simulaciones específicas, sin embargo, no se establece un análisis para el acompañamiento de una materia en particular.…”

“…De acuerdo a este análisis se unificaron los temas de los programas mencionados, Tabla 3. La experimentación en el aprendizaje es una parte fundamental para corroborar los conocimientos teóricos y para fortalecer el aprendizaje (Dak et al, 2018;Saleheen et al, 2018;Zheng et al, 2018). En el caso de la enseñanza de la ingeniería, es de suma importancia el que los estudiantes comprendan los principios y el funcionamiento de tópicos específicos (Okoyeigbo et al, 2020;Ortega-Alvarez et al, 2018;Sharma & Mantri, 2019).…”

La educación actual ha sufrido diversas modificaciones, sobre todo con la aparición del COVID-19 en el mundo. Entre las herramientas tecnológicas que apoyan la actividad didáctica, están los softwares educativos; éstos permiten la simulación de prácticas en laboratorios virtuales que complementan el aprendizaje y permiten demostrar principios teóricos. En el presente artículo se llevó a cabo un análisis documental sobre el uso del software en la electrónica digital, se elaboró un temario común de la materia electrónica digital de las licenciaturas que oferta el Tecnológico Nacional de México. Finalmente se llevó a cabo un análisis del uso del software determinado hacia la materia en cuestión y se estableció una relación que indica el nivel de adecuación de este. Current education has undergone various modifications, especially with the appearance of COVID-19 in the world. Among the technological tools that support the didactic activity is simulation software; These allow to carry out virtual laboratory practices that complement the learning and allow demonstrating theoretical principles. In this article, a documentary analysis was carried out on the use of software in digital electronics, a common agenda of digital electronic matter of the degrees offered by the Tecnológico Nacional de México was elaborated. Finally, an analysis of the use of the software determined towards the subject in question was carried out and a relationship was established that indicates the level of adequacy. Learning styles were identified in the group of surveyed students, and their relationship with the level of satisfaction and achievement of the software.

“…In fact, a hands-on laboratory is a type of learning experience in which the students physically manipulate the real world, objective and tangible materials, and devices to observe and understand nature or material. Unfortunately, the high cost of physical development of laboratories and workshops, as well as the unavailability of practical training for all students at all times and places, are the disadvantages of this type of laboratory [7,12,18,21,25].…”

Practical study such as laboratory activity helps students to learn about engineering technical courses. New electronic technologies and the Internet of Things allow students and researchers to do experiments remotely. During quarantine due to pandemics such as Covid‐19 or when researchers and students are not present in the university, remote laboratories are used as a complementary teaching feature. In these conditions, the remote laboratories also allow the development of experimental‐based research. This paper presents the design and development of a remote interactive laboratory for the teaching and practical learning of DC machines at Technical and Vocational University. This laboratory is designed using the Arduino board to make a data acquisition card and actuator controller. Also, LabVIEW is used, which is remotely controlled based on the Internet and allows students to observe and perform experiments related to the DC machines course anywhere and anytime. In this laboratory, to better adapt to the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology criteria, the principle of teamwork to perform the experiments and achieve the final result has been considered. The case study results of a remote laboratory in Mohajer Faculty present the students' understanding and satisfaction in obtaining the required scientific competencies from the proposed laboratory.
