    Este documento describe cómo un nuevo proyecto Erasmus+, PILAR (Plataform Integration of Laboratories base don the Architecture of visiR), está siendo desarrollado y cómo la puesta en marcha del partenariado y del proyecto está reforzando la red VISIR (Virtual Instrument Systems in Reality) y el Grupo de Interés Especial de VISIR bajo el Consorcio de Laboratorios online (GOLC - Global Online Laboratory Consortium) de la Asociación Internacional de Ingeniería Online (IAOE - International Association of Online Engineering. La Universidad Española para la Educación a Distancia (UNED) coordina este proyecto que tiene como objetivo federar los sistemas existentes (o nuevos) con el fin de utilizar los recursos de manera más efectiva y eficiente, haciendo transparente para el usuario final la elección de los recursos compartidos

    Do Students Really Understand the Difference Between Simulation and Remote Labs?
    (ACM, 2017-10-18) Lima, N.; Viegas, C.; Zannin, M.; Marques, A.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Felgueiras, M. C.; Costa, R.; Fidalgo, A.; Marchisio, S.; Lerro, F.; Merendino, C.; da Silva, J. B.; Pozzo, M. I.; Dobboletta, E.; Gustavsson, I.; Nilsson, K.; García-Peñalvo, F. J.
    Laboratory experiments play a crucial role in engineering education as they strongly contribute to the development of important skills for the professional practice. This paper addresses a students’ understanding gap between simulations and remote labs. These two resources (and namely the remote laboratory VISIR - Virtual Instrument Systems in Reality) have been commonly used on several didactical implementations, along with other didactical resources in different Engineering degrees at the Federal University of Santa Catarina and Polytechnic of Porto School of Engineering. This work, developed in the scope of the VISIR+ Project, intends to evaluate students’ perceptions considering simulation and remote lab results. Quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed to better understand how deeply students realize the differences between these resources and their type of data. Preliminary results indicate that a considerable number of student’s don´t have a clear idea of these differences, even though sometimes they know their definition. Furthermore, this gap does not seem to differ much with the context (country, course, academic year, course content), students’ final grades, teacher approach or implemented tasks.

    The VISIR+ Project – Helping Contextualize Math in an Engineering Course
    (IEEE, 2017-06-06) Lima, N.; Zannin, M.; Viegas, C.; Marques, A.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Felgueiras, M. C.; Costa, R.; Fidalgo, A.; da Silva, J. B.; Pozzo, M. I.; Dobboletta, E.; Gustavsson, I.; García-Peñalvo, F. J.
    The long-term goal of engineering education is to prepare students to work as engineers. Being a practical profession, laboratories play a crucial role in illustrating concepts and principles as well as improving technical skills. In the last decades the use of online resources (simulators and remote labs) has been growing, either as a complementary and/or as an alternative way of developing experimental competences. In the scope of the VISIR+ Project, this work presents the first results of a didactical implementation using simultaneously the remote laboratory VISIR (Virtual Instrument Systems in Reality), simulation and calculus in a Math Course at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC). The preliminary results indicate that the use of several resources increases students’ performance, boosting their learning and competence development.
