In Ninth International Conference on Technological Ecosystems for Enhancing Multiculturality (TEEM'21) (TEEM'21). Association for Computing Machinery, New York, NY, USA, 533–535. DOI:https://doi.org/10.1145/3486011.3486510http://hdl.handle.net/10400.22/20452Lab-based education plays an important role for students adopting science and technology-based careers. The sudden transition to a distance learning environment due to the COVID-19 pandemic and how teachers have tackled with providing lab-based teaching while trying to improve students’ engagement and motivation, is the focus of the presented works. A good diversification of teaching approaches such as PBL, teamwork, gamification or the integration of complementary resources is presented. Additionally, the VISIR+ project is also addressed in the context of a study on Brazil's Educational reality, related to Engineering Education. The VISIR remote lab is also presented as a versatile tool, to be used in several subject areas, other than electronic and electrical circuits.engApplied ComputingPhysical Sciences and EngineeringEducationEngineering EducationRemote and virtual LabsDistance learningPractical skills and experimentationOnline Teaching and Learning in Science and Engineeringconference object10.1145/3486011.3486510
