Abstract(s)

This 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.
