Abstract :
In today´s fast paced and hi-tech environment, an efficient use of time as well as thorough working knowledge of computers is an indispensable aspect of any well-rounded education at any level. Utilization of computer-based learning is a step toward accomplishing both of the aforementioned objectives. Furthermore, computer-based learning processes will enhance the students´ learning, introduce interactive learning methods into the classroom, and afford a more efficient interpretation and computation of the results. This paper intends to show the interpretation of computer-based laboratory into chemistry courses using the Universal Lab Interface (ULI) system developed by Vernier software
