Virtual laboratory workshop in physics

A cycle of virtual laboratory work has been developed in the Mechanics section of the General Physics course, simulating real laboratory equipment used in the physics workshop of the St. Petersburg State Electrotechnical University SPbETU “LETI”. Virtual models are available on the website of the Department of Physics of St. Petersburg State Electrotechnical University and allow students to perform laboratory work remotely. Virtual units reflect both the key laws and the nuances of physical phenomena that arise during the experiment and research on real devices. The developed workshop was used and tested when teaching students of St. Petersburg State Electrotechnical University during the quarantine period for coronavirus. The almost complete correspondence between real and virtual physical installations achieved in computer models made it possible to conduct distance learning instead of face-to-face training without loss of quality.
