What do your students want their lessons to look like? Would you like an academic trip to the surface of Mars or under the ocean waves?

With Labster, these far-fetched ideas are a reality you and your class can experience. In the Chemical Science labs, students will use equipment and substances in safety, enjoying the freedom to experiment time and again to check results or change parameters and being able to easily reflect on their learning. Join today!

The Labster Advantage

Keeping costs down, Labster’s virtual science lab simulation offers an accessible way for every student to enjoy, and engage with, science lessons. Using our innovative 3D interactive platform, your online students can understand complex concepts, develop theories, and practice experiments in a completely safe environment.

Improves student retention and outcomes

Unlimited access to instrumentation

Convenient laboratory access

Integrates with your LMS

Easy tracking of progress & feedback

Fun and engaging 3D animations

Suitable for course re-designs

Dedicated customer support

Aligns with core science curriculum

01. See the trickiest concepts brought to life in 3D!

Let students observe processes in action as they occur, visualize concepts in fully animated visual aids and explore chemical reactions at the molecular level. A truly memorable learning experience.

02. Let students revise the subject matter before moving on to new topics

Labster simulations can be a prerequisite before moving on to new material or beginning an assessment revision period. Letting students tackle these eliminates unnecessary time wastage and resources.

03. Preparing for experiments

Allow students to get confident with lab procedures and protocols so they can access the real world lab and quickly find their feet. Let them learn the techniques and familiarise them with experiments without the hazards of a real lab.

04. Don't let time, costs or accessibility stop your students from learning

Labster labs can powerfully supplement any course with no existing lab component and students will love it!

05. Teach your class online

Track students' participation, offer personalised support and coaching as well as helping to track quiz results and assessments for each student.

06. Build your reflection skills with Labster

Virtual simulations are structured to guide students through experiments or testing situations followed by considering their success or areas to build on next time.

Take a look at our Educational Whitepaper for Virtual Labs in Science

By addressing the needs for a change within the science education field, and demonstrating the valuable benefits offered by virtual laboratories, this whitepaper also discusses the skepticism around their use as a teaching tool. Using published research papers that evaluate the advantages of virtual labs, and first-hand case studies from educators familiar with the inclusion of virtual labs in their courses, our whitepaper discusses:

The challenges that the science sector currently faces
The mistrust around virtual labs
How the learning/teaching experience can be improved through virtual labs
The effectiveness of virtual labs – what the research shows

"The majority of students perceived that the simulations improved their learning of DNA-based technologies, students were motivated to complete the simulation and felt more confident at the end.”

Dr. Bina Rai Singapore University of Technology & Design

"One way to make science more attractive is to make it real. And for me, one thing that Labster does really well is to make it real and fun. Labster brings both humor and relevance, as well as real life context to science education.”

Dr. Ana Barral National University, California

Dr. Sabine Matallana-Surget

"Simulations present concepts in a more intuitive and less abstract way by providing a dynamic representation of chemical reactions or mechanisms at a molecular level.”

Dr. Sabine Matallana-Surget Stirling University, Scotland
