. IntroductionDistance learning (DL) is already part of many university programs, and its impact is increasingdaily. Such an educational delivery mode intends to serve the desire of both students and theirinstructors for increased scheduling freedom. Presently there is a technology gap between non-laboratory and laboratory classes, because the lecture-only courses were the first addressed bydistance learning (since the conversion is more straightforward). Further, engineering educationalso has a costly component that is not directly time related: the use of sophisticated (andoftentimes expensive) equipment. A subset of DL efforts is that of web-based laboratoryexperiments.This paper first examines the work of others in establishing remote instrumentation-based

Although the dependency onincreasingly complex devices will continue to grow, some knowledge principles and basic skills needto be taught in order to prevent a total dependency on many narrowly specialized professionals.Narrow specialization inevitably brings about a risk of not thinking in terms of a whole system and adifficulty in communication with specialists from other disciplines. There are strong voices inacademic community calling to provide solid interdisciplinary knowledge to all graduates [2].

This focus on leadership skills for engineering students emerged over the last 15 years as part of a longstanding effort to link curricula with workplace skill sets. The technological explosion of the 1980's brought with it an urgent need for technical professionals with communications skills, and the College of Engineering responded by launching a Technical Communications Certificate program in 1988.

In fact the search is on for a living computer chip.
