«Standardization on online laboratories for education based on smart learning objects»
Miguel Rodríguez ArtachoUNED
Abstract
One of the possible approaches for the increasing use of remote laboratories (RL) in education from k12 to higher education is to define and establish a common consensus on the structure and operation of RLs from a learning technologies perspective. On one hand as open educational resources (OER), on the other hand as a “lego” piece in the cloud with a focus on potential standardardized information models and protocols. Thus resulting in a common basis to provide instructional interoperability based on search, retrieval, labeling and services for educational purposes.
