Title
A web-based virtual laboratory for SHRIMP.
Abstract
This paper introduces a novel web-based virtual laboratory to assist teaching of Sensitive High Resolution Ion Micro-probe (SHRIMP) implementation, called SHRIMP VL. This virtual laboratory is especially designed to aid learning of the instrument operation procedure. SHRIMP VL was developed based on hypertext preprocessor (PHP) technology and the Browser/Server application model, combined with the Yii framework and database technology. The virtual lab includes a virtual experiment platform to simulate the experiment procedure of the actual instrument and show experiment results. It also provides an immersive and visible virtual environment with navigational hints to guide user learning of the experiment operation, as well as theory presentations. To evaluate this virtual laboratory, two questionnaires were provided to students, who reported that SHRIMP VL is effective in helping them understand and master the instrument and experimental procedures, thereby improving their learning efficiency and laying foundations for personal operation of on-site instruments.
