Summary/Abstract: Creating virtual laboratories showed a high participation of students in these activities, but to get a proper feedback, we added forum for each site. Students have proposed various interesting topics in every virtually laboratory discipline, brought questions and tried to find adequate answers. Meanwhile, the forum is a tool to quantify the activity of students who missed class hours, and the interest shown by them. The fact that students have requested information on some collateral subjects proves the interest of online participation in these labs. This helps the teacher in objective assessment of students, especially those students who work and can not always come to classes.
