Edutech webinar series: Leveraging remote lab tools to create rich interactive experiences in control, mechatronics & emerging technologies

Edutech with its world class partners brings to you a series of transformational engineering education webinars from 27th - 30th April 2020 "Transforming Hands-On Engineering Education".

Webinar 1

Leveraging remote lab tools to create rich interactive experiences in control, mechatronics & emerging technologies

Distance learning is becoming an essential component of modern engineering education, but moving a traditional engineering course online remains challenging. During this webinar we intend to touch upon how you can leverage tools available free of cost from Quanser to offer students credible lab activities accessible off-campus but integrate them into your online lectures and bring even more interaction and engagement to your course material. The webinar is specifically meant for academicians looking to implement a hands-on, experiential approach to engineering education while inspiring students.

Date: 27th April 2020 | Timing: 4:30 - 6:00 PM IST
