摘要

Ausubel’s theory of academic achievement (TAS) is a foundational concept in understanding how undergraduate students learn electronics and industrial networks. This theory emphasises the importance of meaningful learning to grasp complex concepts. The implementation of this theory enhances comprehension and retention. The creation of a remote laboratory is especially beneficial in developing countries with distant suburban areas, providing students with flexible, round-the-clock access to conduct experiments outside regular class hours. This setup is particularly advantageous for students unable to attend in-person classes, ensuring they always have access to essential educational resources. In this work, a didactic remote panel has been developed, incorporating physical structures based on PLC and seven compact experimental boards for the teaching of Op-Amp configurations. Additionally, a Multisim simulated environment is included, enabling students to create circuit objects and modify Op-Amp RLC parameters. The system supports various teaching scenarios with wired communication via Modbus. The concept, implemented using off-the-shelf materials and self-developed components, has been validated through several practical experiments available to students.
