Abstract

With the addition of online laboratories, distance education can become more meaningful and complete. Virtual laboratory is a high efficient tool for practical teaching assisted instruction. This paper design the virtual laboratory. Android application structure after analyzing the characteristics and the classification of virtual laboratory. It discusses the construction and system structure of network-based virtual laboratory which is used for MOOC (massive open online courses). This virtual laboratory environment goes based on conventional computer simulations and real cellphone test, which could provide the students with the flexibility to perform various experiments related to the fundamental law of physics, chemistry and et all. In this virtual laboratory APP, no matter the students or the instructor are represented as virtual characters. Assessment tools such as preview and review experiment tests are part of the laboratory environment which could provide different levels of the students at every step of the laboratory exercises. This paper presents a virtual lab established through data socket technology that enables the end user to design and implement control algorithms. Although this makes the problem more challenging, the quality of learning is also enhanced enormously.
