Using VISIR in a large undergraduate course

The use of remote labs in undergraduate courses has been reported in
literature several times since the mid 90's. Nevertheless, very few
articles present results about the learning gains obtained by students
using them, especially with a large number of students, thus suggesting a
lack of data concerning their pedagogical effectiveness. This paper
addresses such a gap by presenting some preliminary results concerning
the use of a remote laboratory, known as VISIR, in a large undergraduate
course on Applied Physics, with over 500 students enrolled
