Students can access WebLab-Deusto using their own web browsers, from where they can configure the experiment they are going to use. Then, they can see what is happening in the experiment through a webcam, as well as a number of switches, buttons and other input devices, whichenable them to send information to the device. In this way, students can interact with the device in the same way as they would interact using their hands in the laboratory but, in this case, from their own homes or from anywhere with Internet access.
The CESEI of IEEE
The IEEE (pronounced ?i-e-cubo? in Spanish or ?eye-triple-e? in English) is the world?s largest technical professional society (over 300,000 members, 70,000 of whom are students). The IEEE is the acronym for the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.The aim of this association is to promote innovation and research, and to show the latest technological advances in the many diverse fields of electricity, electronics, telecommunications, bioengineering and computation.
The IEEE tries to achieve these aims in different ways such as publications (approximately 30% of the world?s literature on issues related to electrical technologies, electronics, telecommunications and computation is published by the IEEE), conferences and congresses worldwide.The organisation encompasses 10 regions.The Spanish section, located in South East Europe, the Iberian Peninsula, and the Balearic and Canary islands, belongs to region 8 and is comprised of about 3,000 members, 13 branches and 19 chapters, one of which is the Spanish Chapter of the Education Society, CESEI.
