Special session: Remote-labs access in internet and performance learning environment projects

This special session presents a new European project, Remote-labs Access in Internet-based Performance-Centered Learning Environment for Curriculum Support (RIPLECS). The project is carried out by five European partners and is aimed to deliver an official, online, and labor-oriented master degree program, conducted by the project partners, in Information and Communication System (ICS). The program addresses the labor market needs and tackles the deficit in graduate professionals. On the other hand, it copes with the predominant students´ lifestyle. The administration and organization of the program is entirely carried out online through a platform DIPSIEL that was initially created by the project partners. Remote laboratories are well integrated in most of the master´s subjects, which makes the program unique of its kind. Each partner contributes with at least a subject and access to a remote laboratory. In is session, the project is described outlining the main objectives and the contribution of each partner.
