Many researchers have acknowledged the value ofhaving a virtual laboratory to explore physical phenomenon, noting it is an efficient, cost-effective alternative to physical laboratories, and as a potentially suitable replacement whenphysical laboratories are not available [2]-[6]. Many studies report the value of simulations tostudent learning, noting their ease of introduction into pre-existing curricula [7]-[10].Educational technology has demonstrated the ability to stimulate more interactive andcooperative teaching methods and student learning, in addition to saving

The modifiedcourse will include inter-campus collaborative hands-on laboratory and team project experiences.This has the potential to transform the educational experience of the often isolated place-boundstudents in rural communities, building their social capital and connecting them to a larger
