simulated laboratories are as effective as hands-on labs in teachingcourse concepts. Another study by Viegas et al. [10] showed that remote laboratories were usefulfor basic courses, but not as effective on more advanced courses. While there is growingpopularity to offer courses based on virtual instruction, significant challenges remain forengineering education using this format. These challenges include the fundamental need forexperimentation and for students to learn through interactions with hardware [11].Significant scrutiny of virtual instruction is expected to occur during the accreditation process ofengineering programs that have incorporated virtual methods into their curriculum.

We wanted to explore if the tool,developed for engineering or technology, can be used for students in a different context like businessdisciplines. After this pilot study, we believe the tool can be employed in courses in various disciplines,focusing on content that addresses social, technical
