Virtual lab solves the problem for practice in online learning

    In the period when the COVID 19 pandemic is increasingly complicated, the universities have switched from face-to-face to online training mode. One of those challenges is teaching practical subjects. To solve that problem, the virtual laboratory was developed. The virtual lab is programmed with block graphics. These models are designed to resemble physical models so that students will not be surprised when practicing on real devices. The link to used the Virtual lab is below:

    We think that applying virtual labs is one of the solutions to solve the problem of students' practical skills during the epidemic period. However, when the epidemic situation is under control, a virtual laboratory can be used for students to practice before going to the physics laboratory, which will reduce risks in practice safety and learn the principle first by the method. flipped classroom.
