Abstract :
The lack of fully integrated real and virtual classrooms or labs which provide interactivity between participants has recently become an important issue. We also noticed that a specific pedagogical approach based on the feedback from participants in the educational process has not yet been described in the literature. These are two important motivations for dealing with this problem. In this paper we present Virtual Educational System, through integrated real and virtual labs (VirLabs). System enables interactivity between students which work contemporarily on the same project. Virtual Network Computing (VNC) system and protocol has been used as a platform independent system. We are working on research a completely new communication protocol, which depends on the behaviour of the proposed educational system.
