Virtualization of Laboratory Practices Using Visual Basic Excel

The COVID-19 pandemic and its related restrictions forced the reorganization of learning methodology gave a central role to remote learning. Laboratory experiments are most affected activity, several alternatives were described. This work proposes create calculation tools by simply programming in Visual Basic Excel emulate data acquisition specific laboratory experiments. approach appears useful with simple setup followed analysis. experiment gas volumetric properties allows fixing pressure temperature conditions measuring occupied volume. developed program emulates such operations reports computed Further reduction is same both procedures. Such virtual experience was successfully used groups over 100 students. results obtained satisfactory compared those laboratory. Detailed analysis grades shows that acquired skills comparable methodologies. Consequently, flexible option for teaching complement traditional experimentation.
