AB  - Due to global COVID-19 crisis, the adoption of online delivery methods supported by accessible technologies, applications, and academic learning platforms has accelerated. There is a larger demand for remote teaching and learning of courses for companies, universities, and grade schools.  Distance education has become one of the learning options most used by universities, where interactive learning is presented and students can review the content of the courses on an academic platform and study in their own time with face-to-face tutoring sessions or remote in case of specific doubts. The online education is focused on learning content more than the communication between students and tutors. At [SCHOOL, Department] , we have additional challenges due to the geographic location in the border of USA and Mexico because some of our students are living in Mexico and we are supporting them virtually.  The online learning for laboratories was implemented using remote access to the equipment in the physical laboratories at the university, alternatively, students acquired portable equipment designed for work at home creating an environment similar to a real laboratory but with some limitations. Students opted for one method or another depending on vendor availability or their resources.
This paper explores the differences, as well as the limitations, between the tools used for distance learning in the circuits laboratories. As a case of study there is a comparison between face-to-face and remote laboratory sessions, and personal laboratory at home scenarios. We will outline the observed student benefits and challenges, and the response of students due to geographic limitations.
