Why not? Interactive Screen Experiments – Photo-realistic ‘point-of-view’ recordings of real experiments. “Results” : Derived by algorithm Banked real measurements
Why not? Remote Access Laboratories – Complex equipment routinely controlled through digital interfaces, eg mass spectrometers , astronomical telescopes Lab class equipment using Labview interfaces Purpose built rigs
Why not? • 3 -D Immersive Environments – Games technologies that enable students to explore and interact with equipment SLOODLE developments
Why not? • Mega. Lab Experiments - Investigations in which large numbers of distributed students contribute data to mass observation exercises eg to map national traffic noise, pollution levels.
