Article Distance Laboratory Applications ERRL: A Study on Radio Communication in Electronic Field(IEEE, 2008) Aydın, Cansu Çiğdem; Özyurt, E.; Aydın, Elif; Çağıltay, Nergiz; Özbek, Mehmet Efe; Alparslan, Ceren; Kara, AliIn the last decade, the effect of internet usage in education is gradually increased. When we look from academic perspective, the new technologies provided alternatives for students learning. As distance education becomes important everyday, the indispensable elements of teaching and education, laboratories must be reachable via remote connection. Consequently, the education that is going to be given to the students will be more flexible with respect to place and time constraints and students can reach laboratory facilities at any time and anywhere not only in lectures and practical hours. In this study, European Remote Radio Laboratory (ERRL) which is a distance remote Radio Frequency (RF) laboratory designed for electrical-electronics students, is described generally. The software architecture, infrastructure and experiment that can be done with a remote connection have been described.Article Open Source Learning Management Systems in Distance Learning(TOJET: The Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology, 2010) Aydın, Cansu Çiğdem; Tirkeş, GüzinThis paper presents the major findings from evaluation the most widely used open source learning management systems and identify the most suitable open source e-learning platform. In this study, some analyses and comparisons were made about open source learning management systems the outcome of which was that Moodle was found to be outstanding with many features more than other LMS since it aims to improve the educational quality and include the tools that an e-learning system should have.Article Distance Laboratory Applications Errl: a Study on Radio Communication in Electronic Field(Optimization of Electrical and Electronic Equipment, 2008) Aydın, Cansu Çiğdem; Özyurt, Erdem; Aydın, Elif; Çağıltay, Nergiz; Özbek, Efe; Alparslan, CerenIn the last decade, the effect of internet usage in education is gradually increased.

By using distance learning tools, the student education can be more flexşble with respect to place and time constraints. So, students can access information in every time and everywhere either in libraries or during the lectures. As is widely known that, distance learning is costly, and cost-effectiveness becomes more important as the institutions become large-scale providers of distance education. Cost which is the most important disadvantages of distance learning according to traditional learning environments can be removede with the extensive features of the Open Source Software. Generalizing the usage of Open Source Software will provide development of learning tools and increases the educational quality. As far as the literature is reviewed, not much research has already been conducted about the comparisons of open source learning management systems in distance education. In this study, some analyses and comparisons were made about open source learning management systems and Moodle was outstanding with many features among other LMS that aims to improve the educational quality and include the tools that an e-learning system should have.
