Paper Abstract:
|
The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has gained its prominence in the building of educational
collaborative environments providing new ways of knowledge acquisition. With the aim of obtaining a system which fits
with the educational purposes, it is necessary to join pedagogical and technical efforts.
In this paper we are going to deal with the design and implementation of a platform for supporting collaborative learning
in virtual laboratories using tools such as whiteboard, chat, posting tools, modeling experiments, simulation tools and
remote laboratories.
Regarding the design of this platform it is has been used J2EE technologies for supporting the asynchronous
communication and Elvin notification servers to support the synchronous communication. |
