Abstract

In Portugal, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation (FCG) has recognized in online experimentation its credits by using intensively emergent technologies with relevance in education, in industry and in medicine either in training or in specific applications. The Portuguese consortium of online experimentation was created in 2011 as one of the outcomes of the project Experiment@Portugal, funded by FCG. This consortium is available at pt.lab2go, the Portuguese version of the international platform lab2go. Following this project, Experiment@Portugal 2012 is the new project, now looking for potentiating the online experimentation consortium with new approaches and to enrich some of its resources with new different technologies looking mainly to contribute for secondary schools, higher education and lifelong learning.
