Abstract
EE-CoL is a teaching strategy developed for learning distributed environments. It is based on a socio-constructivism approach and supplies the necessary tools to achieve meaningful learning by reinforcing interaction and collaboration between students. EE-CoL emerged to complement traditional teaching, improving the conventional learning process and ensuring a continuous virtual communication between students and teachers by means of new collaborative learning strategies and tool supplied by ICT (Information and Communication Technology). This paper presents the experience carried out at Universidad Politécnica de Barquisimeto, (UNEXPO) in Venezuela for an Electronics Laboratory course. In this article, a special emphasis is placed on the teacher’s role in order to establish new parameters for a more interactive learning model.
