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.
