Abstract
This article presents a collaborative teaching environment that lets students work through lab-based tutorials with access to a remotely located lecturer via Webcams, email, discussion forums, and chat rooms. Remote-control software also lets lecturers take control of the students´ lab computers to troubleshoot problems. This project aims to facilitate knowledge transfer between students and lecturers.
