Visual editor of scenarios for virtual laboratories

Abstract

The paper presents the implementation of a visual script editor that allows you to design a series of experiments for virtual educational laboratories. The connection of the above approach with the possibility of explicit control over students' involvement and methods of its evaluation is described.
