Practical experience is an essential part of the learning process. However, many institutions lack the time and financial resources required to set up and develop research laboratories. A solution to this difficulty could be found in the adoption of Virtual Reality technology, which could allow the establishment of Virtual Laboratories that mimic the processes and behaviors that might occur in real laboratories. This article discusses a novel project that proposes and outlines an educational virtual laboratory that strives to match the needs of a real laboratory while also supporting communication and collaboration services. We propose a web-based system that allows users to conduct experiments in educational fields such as physics or chemistry in 3D multi-user worlds where users are represented by avatars and are provided with a variety of communication and collaboration services in order to simulate a real learning experimental process as efficiently as possible.
