Abstract

This paper documents on the programming and software design underpinning the Virtual Laboratory Practical Class (VLPC) program. This is an experiment simulation HTML5 web, which was designed to provide students with a virtual “pre-lab” experience where they can conduct an experiment and use equipment and techniques that they will encounter in a “live” pharmacology practical laboratory class. The VLPC replaces the traditional laboratory manual with a virtual depiction of the experiment to be undertaken. Students can run through the entire sequence which involves utilizing the virtual depictions (widgets) of lab instruments through to plotting and analyzing the data generated as consequence of their actions. In order to provide a user-friendly distribution and installation-free experience, the VLPC is fully web-based and leverages the Sproutcore HTML5 framework to create an interactive application that can function on all major browsers without the Flash plugin. The implementation makes extensive use of Statecharts to model the behaviors of the cast of equipment widgets that make up the VLPC experience. In addition to dictating responses to the student's actions, widget states provide the means to record and monitor the student's decisions about use of the equipment in the simulation.
VLPC: HTML5药理学虚拟实验室
本文论述了虚拟实验室实用课(VLPC)程序的编程和软件设计。这是一个实验模拟HTML5网页,旨在为学生提供一个虚拟的“预实验室”体验,在那里他们可以进行实验,并使用他们将在“现场”药理学实践实验课中遇到的设备和技术。VLPC用要进行的实验的虚拟描述取代了传统的实验室手册。学生可以运行整个序列,包括利用实验室仪器的虚拟描述(小部件),通过绘图和分析他们的行为产生的数据。为了提供用户友好的发行和免安装体验,VLPC完全基于web,并利用Sproutcore HTML5框架来创建一个交互式应用程序,该应用程序可以在所有主流浏览器上运行,而无需Flash插件。该实现广泛使用Statecharts来建模组成VLPC体验的设备部件的行为。除了指示对学生行为的响应之外,小部件状态还提供了记录和监控学生在模拟中使用设备的决定的方法。
