Abstract :
This article presents the use of remote experimentation laboratories integrated with 3D virtual worlds and their application in the school context. The use of this educational tool is designed to complement the teaching and learning. Using technology in teaching to promote learning beyond the classroom. The remote experimentation has been configured as an alternative to promote this learning supplement. Thus helping the new generation of students in theoretical and practical interaction. The 3D virtual worlds stand out as important tool to compose a virtual learning environment. Since the interactions that occur in these environments tend to be more dynamic and attractive.
