A low-cost remote lab has been implemented to aid instructors in delivering an online electrical engineering introductory course in electric circuits during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main purpose of implementing the remote lab was to familiarize freshmen students with conventional equipment such as digital oscilloscope, function generators, power supply, multimeter and frequency counters. The integration of the remote devices in the online lectures was essential to enable students to operate the equipment and prepare them for a smooth transition upon their return to campus. The lab has also offered students the possibility of conducting basic online circuit experiments, both as part of the theoretical course and its associated lab, in a proof-of-concept paradigm or as a fully practical course.
