- International Cooperation for Remote Laboratory UsePublication . Alves, Gustavo R.; Fidalgo, André; Marques, Maria Arcelina; Viegas, Clara; Felgueiras, Carlos; Costa, Ricardo J.; Lima, Natércia; Castro, Manuel; Díaz-Orueta, Gabriel; SanCristóbal-Ruiz, Elio; García-Loro, Felix; García-Zubía, Javier; Hernández-Jayo, Unai; Kulesza, Wlodek J.; Gustavsson, Ingvar; Nilsson, Kristian; Zackrisson, Johan; Pester, Andreas; Zutin, Danilo G.; Schlichting, Luis C.; Ferreira, Golberi; de Bona, Daniel D.; Pacheco, Fernando S.; da Silva, Juarez B.; Alves, João B.; Biléssimo, Simone; Pavani, Ana M.; Lima, Delberis A.; Temporão, Guilherme; Marchisio, Susana; Concari, Sonia B.; Lerro, Federico; de Arregui, Gaston S.; Merendino, Claudio; Plano, Miguel; Fernández, Rubén A.; Paz, Héctor R.; Soria, Mario F.; Gómez, Mario J.; de Almeida, Nival N.; de Oliveira, Vanderli F.; Pozzo, María I.; Dobboletta, Elsa; Bertramo, BrendaExperimenting is fundamental to the training process of all scientists and engineers. While experiments have been traditionally done inside laboratories, the emergence of Information and Communication Technologies added two alter-natives accessible anytime, anywhere. These two alternatives are known as virtual and remote labs, and are sometimes indistinguishably referred as online labs. Sim-ilarly to other instructional technologies, virtual and remote labs require some ef-fort from teachers in integrating them into curricula, taking into consideration sev-eral factors that affect their adoption (i.e. cost) and their educational effectiveness (i.e. benefit). This chapter analyses these two dimensions and sustains the case where only through international cooperation it is possible to serve the large num-ber of teachers and students involved in engineering education. It presents an ex-ample in the area of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, based on a remote lab named Virtual Instruments System in Reality, and it then describes how a number of European and Latin-American institutions have been cooperating under the scope of an Erasmus+ project2, for spreading its use in Brazil and Argentina.

- A roadmap for the VISIR remote labPublication . Alves, Gustavo R.; Marques, Maria Arcelina; Fidalgo, André; García-Zubía, Javier; Castro, Manuel; Hernández-Jayo, Unai; García-Loro, Felix; Kreiter, ChristianThis article proposes a roadmap for the VISIR remote laboratory based on a SWOT analysis performed by fifteen experts, with large experience on VISIR deployment, and their perceptions in three categories: Technical, Pedagogical and Educational. The resulting VISIR roadmap was obtained considering an underlying strategy based on a RAKID model. The major resulting insights address the user interface as the most evident strength in the Pedagogical category, while the major weakness is matrix limitations in the Technical category. At the same time, this weakness is somewhat related to major opportunities identified as ‘new developments’ also, in the Pedagogical category. The major Educational category aspects arise as threats and are related to ICT availability, an issue not directly controlled by the VISIR community, but by institutional practices and policies. The proposed roadmap and its guidelines establish a sustainable strategy and framework to support the future of VISIR and enlarging its community.
- Una Federación de Laboratorios Remotos VISIR a través del Proyecto PILARPublication . Kulesza, Wlodek J.; Gustavsson, Ingvar; Marques, M. Arcelina; Alves, Gustavo R.; Fidalgo, André V.; Hernandéz-Jayo, Unai; García-Zubía, Javier; Kreiter, Christian; Oros, Ramona; Pester, Andreas; Zutin, Danilo G.; Auer, Michael E.; García-Hernandéz, Carla; Tavío-Gallo, Ricardo; Savela, Marjo; García-Loro, Felix; Aroca, Alejandro M.; Cristobal-Ruiz, Elio San; Díaz, GabrielEste documento describe cómo un nuevo proyecto Erasmus+, PILAR (Plataform Integration of Laboratories base don the Architecture of visiR), está siendo desarrollado y cómo la puesta en marcha del partenariado y del proyecto está reforzando la red VISIR (Virtual Instrument Systems in Reality) y el Grupo de Interés Especial de VISIR bajo el Consorcio de Laboratorios online (GOLC - Global Online Laboratory Consortium) de la Asociación Internacional de Ingeniería Online (IAOE - International Association of Online Engineering. La Universidad Española para la Educación a Distancia (UNED) coordina este proyecto que tiene como objetivo federar los sistemas existentes (o nuevos) con el fin de utilizar los recursos de manera más efectiva y eficiente, haciendo transparente para el usuario final la elección de los recursos compartidos.
