Area of Science:

  • Electronics education
  • Hybrid learning environments
  • STEM practical training

Background:

  • Traditional science education struggles to integrate practical lab work effectively within hybrid learning models.
  • The Laborem project addresses the need for accessible remote experimentation in undergraduate electronics courses.
  • Previous iterations of the Laborem platform relied on proprietary solutions, limiting broader adoption.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the hardware and software design of the open-source Laborem platform.
  • To provide a guide for duplicating and deploying the Laborem system for basic electronics learning.
  • To enhance remote laboratory capabilities for undergraduate STEM education.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an open-source interface box (Laborem Box) with interchangeable circuit boards (plugs).
  • Migration of the Laborem platform to open-source software (PyScada) for enhanced flexibility.
  • Integration of a 3D printable enclosure, power supply, motherboard, and embedded single-board computer within the Laborem Box.

Main Results:

  • Successful migration from proprietary to open-source solutions (PyScada and Laborem Box) since 2017.
  • Creation of an adaptable system with easily interchangeable circuit boards (plugs) for diverse course needs.
  • Development of a user-friendly human-machine interface for student accessibility.

Conclusions:

  • The Laborem platform offers a viable and adaptable solution for remote undergraduate electronics practical training.
  • The open-source nature of the system facilitates duplication and deployment, promoting wider access to remote lab experiments.
  • This system effectively supports hybrid teaching models in STEM fields by integrating essential practical components.
