Virtual laboratory for supporting chemistry learning and practicing

This paper describes the importance of developing learning tools, such as virtual laboratories in different areas of science with emphasis in chemistry, through the development of a virtual laboratory that allows students to access to an environment of experiential learning. It has two main stages which are: a virtual world (software) where the student is guided by an integrated environment with the features necessary in order to perform the practices and at the same time, has a capture stage (hardware) that is responsible for making the process of experimentation as real as possible, offering the instrument´s sensation or machine´s sensation during the experiments. Throughout the document the steps for the completion of the virtual laboratory are seen with the results so far.
