. Thus the investment required to set up laboratory classes would be morereasonable.Now that we know we need no more than one setup to actually conduct the laboratory we canthink of offering laboratory courses for subjects such as High Voltage Engineering, ComputerNumerical Control Laboratory or other specialized subjects. Thus laboratory courses can havejust one satellite terminal at the universities or the place of hardware setup and the students canparticipate in the laboratory by remote access using the Breeze Technology. So now studentscan have real time experience with apparatus that are expensive and have strict detail to safety. Page

Harnessing Light, a study by the National Academy of Sciences1, pointsout that “Although optics is pervasive in modern life, its role is that of a technological enabler: Itis essential, but typically it plays a supporting role in a larger system.” To enable the teaching ofoptics in science and engineering program the study identifies two issues that need to beaddressed when designing programs that teach optics: “How to support and strengthen a fieldsuch as optics whose value is primarily enabling” and
