Remote Programming Environments: the Robotic Laboratory Case

Abstract

In the last couple of decades, remote learning has represented a clear advantage both as a primary and as a support tool. However, a complete remote experience loses the practical aspects which are usually acquired when working with other peers inside a laboratory facility. As such, in this paper a novel remote laboratory approach is introduced. Starting from a very practical issue, the document underlines which technical solutions have been taken into consideration in order to offer a flawless overall learning experience to the users. The integration of this tool inside an already existing e-learning platform allows to make use of some of the already existing contents and produce new open educational resources which can benefit the whole community of learners.
