The Labster Advantage

Labster’s innovative science lab simulations ignites imaginations and helps students gain confidence in their own abilities. Allowing them to repeat experiments safely, understand complex ideas, and gain the advantage over their peer group, we can supplement your teaching with our 3D, interactive experiences.

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. Visualize complex theories and processes

Let students see the complicated equipment as it works from inside, show them the construction of DNA on the molecular level or manipulate cells on the holo-table to truly make learning memorable.

02. Recap on prior learning before assessment

Ensure your students are retaining knowledge with the fun quizzes embedded in our simulations. Save time and money printing piles of resources and set a simulation as a prerequisite to new learning.

03. Students can access a virtual lab to complete experiments without mess, hassle, waiting, or danger!

Not everyone can fit a lab in their place of work, let alone their home. Labster simulations will take students into the lab so they can safely complete experiments.

04. Can't get to the lab? Now you can!

Add a laboratory component to any course with ease to develop students' knowledge and skills.

05. Get online and learn independently

In uncertain times, you can teach from anywhere with Labster. The simulations can assess your students with quick quizzes or lengthier reports, track different students' results as well as offering coaching when needed.

06. Let students reflect on work and results with Labster simulations

Students will enjoy the chance to examine their results and decide whether alternative methods would have changed them.

Take a look at the Educational Whitepaper for Scientific Virtual Laboratories

This whitepaper looks at the changes that are taking place in science education, and the way in which virtual laboratories are helping to facilitate these changes. It also addresses the skepticism that can surround the use of virtual labs. The whitepaper contains details of published research which evaluates the effectiveness of virtual labs, and uses case studies from independent educators who have made use of virtual labs to deliver their courses.

In the whitepaper you will find:

The 5 challenges that are found in science education
The benefits of virtual labs to education
The skepticism that may surround virtual labs
A summary of the research into the effectiveness of virtual labs

"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
