Abstract: The standards of the International Maritime Organization recommend the introduction of distance learning and web?based learning in training and certification for seafarers. Following these suggestions, the present work describes a Remote Laboratory that use in scale models of ships, which satisfy these requirements. The instrumented in scale ship acquires data of its movements, which are interpreted in stability terms. By using this Remote Laboratory, students are instructed online in the study of ships stability. The developed experiences have been positively valued by the students as an improvement in their learning process.
