Virtual Chemical Laboratory via Distance Learning

The problems of representation and learning material in distance learning are successfully solved, but development of professional skills is a problem, that requires a solution, especially for teaching natural sciences such as Chemistry. The article deals with issues related to the organization and implementation of laboratory chemical experiments via distance learning. This paper covers a classification of virtual chemical laboratory. The author proposes to use free ware program Virtual Chemistry Laboratory teaching Chemistry. Distance learning has the advantages that this program can be installed on a local computer and on-line. Moreover the local version and on-line version of this software can be presented in different languages. The paper gives examples of laboratory work. The author studies the creation of new laboratory work in chemistry using this program.
