Social network education:a physics laboratory on Web

Abstract

The prevalence of internet and the repid progress of World Wide Web technologies have successfully turned the dream of distance learning into reality. Using virtual reality techniques on the WWW,we have developed a web-based distance learning system for experiment, a traditional Physics Laboratory whose training requires many equipment. In our system, all equipment is consisted of many fundamental elements. To build a new experiment that requires a new equipment, we can combine many existent elements into the new equipment.The experiment can be done by a single people or many people via networks
