Abstract
- Remote experiment and his quite recent extension towards remote experiment network have created a new workspace in teaching / learning environment. There is well known the fact that “environment influences behavior” (Gallagher -1993). Remote experiment has an articulated, codified and stored shape being easy to be transmitted to others. It means that remote experiment has all of the characteristics of tangible knowledge. In short, moving towards actually acceptations, remote experiment represents: “know-what” because it is referred at facts, represents: “know-why” because is connected at scientific understanding and also represents: “know - who” because implies networking. In the paper authors want to stress other additional characteristics of the remote experiment as teaching / learning environment. These additional characteristics will be launched as questions: - remote experiment succeed to fuse two important things - “thinking” and “doing”?; - remote experiment succeed to combine in a happy manner the two sides of brain activity: linear way (written texts) with nonlinear way (visual side)?; - the combination between linear and nonlinear ways will add as a new characteristic of the remote experiment the “visual thinking”? There is well known the path of knowledge production: the raw intangible knowledge is transferred with the help of the tangible in other tangible but, during this process, it is also transformed in supplementary internalized intangible knowledge at other level (Nenonen -2004) [1]. Also there is well known the Polany (1958) statement: “we can know more than we can tell” [3]. Paper will deals with above questions and statements because the development of the remote experiment in the last five years need some pedagogical clarifications in its sustainability and development. Intangible knowledge, named many times “know how”, is often difficult to be measured. But is possible to do indirect effects using the remote experiment, as a new workspace, that will improve the process of knowledge creation.
