A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF VIRTUAL LABORATORY LEARNING OVER CONVENTIONAL LABORATORY LEARNING OF CIRCUIT BRANCHES OF DIPLOMA STUDENTS

S. Murugadass, Dr. E.S.M. Suresh
ABSTRACT
In higher education and corporate training, the on-line education is dominating and providing varieties of learning experience for the students. Although there is no substitute for the experience that a real laboratory environment provides, with the advent of different software packages allow the user to simulate and gain experience of learning similar to actual laboratory conditions. The objective of this paper is to study the impact of Virtual laboratories' teaming in electrical circuits and systems.
