"Laboratories have always been an integral component of engineering education. However,\r\nthe rapid growth of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has now made it\r\npossible for virtual laboratories to be used as an alternative or to supplement the physical or\r\nreal laboratories. Physical laboratories are the traditional laboratories found in universities :\r\nthey occupy space, are well equipped and require expertise to function effectively. However,\r\nthey come with a high price tag and are not cheap to maintain in the long-run. Moreover, the\r\nnumber of students taking engineering courses is steadily increasing which makes it harder for\r\nthe laboratory instructor to provide personal attention to all students. As a result, universities\r\nare considering other options, such as virtual laboratories, seriously. Virtual laboratories are\r\nused in the ‘any time, anyplace, on-line learning’ world of engineering education. They are also\r\nincreasingly being used to supplement the traditional learning modes. This paper reviews the\r\nimportance of virtual laboratories and their merits and demerits in engineering education."^^ . "2005" . . "3" . "2" . .
