Abstract
Significant progress has been made in distance learning with the result that network learning services are more complicated than ever. One new trend is using computer-assisted techniques for the teaching of experiments. By using these methods, safety concerns are reduced, as are operation and instrument costs. A virtual environment has reality and interaction performance. A distributed virtual environment also means that multiple users can join in the same session. We determine the construction, movement and curriculum of virtual environments in the teaching of electric machinery experiments. We set up a virtual laboratory with reality, interaction and flexibility. In the laboratory, human-computer interaction and human-human interaction are provided for teachers and students
