Quality of Inter actions during a proposal for teaching physics using a virtual classroom and a Remote Laboratory

Abstract

In this work the design, use and evaluation of a proposal for the teaching or physics in a virtual classroom using a real remote access laboratory through the internet is described. It is a new proposal based on a constructivist conception of socio-cultural orientation of teaching that incorporates new technology in its informative and communicative modality/approach. In agreement with this position that underlies the pedagogical proposal, its evaluation is done bearing in mind that the quality of an online training is measured by the quality of the interaction that teachers and students have during it. From this analysis, it can be concluded how valuable it is the possibility of incorporating the remote laboratory as a didactic resource for the learning of physics and which technical and didactic aspects need to be taken into account to do so.
