About VPLab

This package was written as an aid to teachers and students of physics. It is not intended to replace practical work in a school laboratory, nor is it meant to displace the use of text books (or teachers!). This software library serves to illustrate and animate most of the topics taught in a modern physics curriculum. Some of the animations and virtual experiments go beyond what is required at school, but are included to stretch the more able pupils. The Virtual Physical Laboratory has been used successfully in a broad range of curricula in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, India, Nigeria, Spain, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, and is endorsed by The National Physical Laboratory, The Institute of Physics and Cambridge International Examinations.
