The universal spreading of links to the world net, in exponential growth, is an irreversible trend. Simultaneously, there is a continuous expansion of the accessibility to Internet 2 in Universities and Colleges of different countries, including Brazil. Ever-decreasing latency, bandwidth enhancement, a growing number of available tools and computational resources, all these trends are expected to change several aspects of the teaching/learning interaction, The field of Chemical/Biological and Process/Bioprocess Engineering is certainly part of this process. And one important aspect in this area is the access to experimental setups, which are essential for development and consolidation of knowledge, assimilation of theoretical concepts, stimulation of critical reasoning and induction of cooperative work.
