Teach STEM online with our virtual science laboratories

PLAY VIDEO

Our online simulations have been developed specifically to enable STEM students to study remotely and still be able to engage in a laboratory environment. With Labster's innovative virtual environment, STEM students can develop their laboratory skills and increase their knowledge in a fun and risk-free way.

Our virtual simulations cover a broad range of topics across many subjects, watch our informative video to find out how labster's remote laboratory environment can help with STEM teaching.

After using Labster virtual labs, student retention increased from 80% to 95%

The Labster Advantage

Providing students everywhere with an immersive, realistic experience, Labster’s innovative science lab simulation brings immeasurable benefits to your students. Our labs save resources by providing a safe environment for them to develop their own hypotheses and experiments, and by helping them gain confidence in preparation for the real-world wet lab, your students will stand out above their peer groups.

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. Become immersed in 3D animations of the trickier ideas

Let your learners see the processes in action, see the concepts realized in fully rendered simulations which are engaging and memorable.

02. Refresh knowledge in the class or in their own time

Save time and resources by letting students recap on prior learning with Labster's simulations. Ensure all learners have a good grounding before moving on to a new subject or assessments.

03. Prepare for lab work in safety

Use Labster's simulated laboratories to plan and prepare for experiments, become familiar with safety protocols and the experimentation procedure. Ensure students are confident before entering a real lab with real hazards.

04. Laboratories in the strangest places!

Complete lab work from the coffee shop, the beach or bed. Virtual labs can improve the accessibility for all and provide vital lab experience when real labs aren't available.

05. As learning goes remote, teach , coach, quiz and assess your students online

Labster's simulations have inbuilt assessment moments, clear objectives and offer plenty of support to students working independently.

06. Help embed the learning in students' minds with built in reflection periods

After lab experiments, take students through a simulation to analyse their results. and gain some independent support.

Take a look at the Whitepaper for Virtual Labs in Science Education

In this whitepaper we lay out the importance of change in science education, and how virtual labs hold unique advantages in facilitating this change, while also looking at the skepticism that surrounds their use. The whitepaper also discusses the research that has been undertaken on the effectiveness of virtual labs, and looks at educators’ first hand experience of virtual labs through case studies.

In this whitepaper you will find:

The challenges surrounding today’s science education
The improvements that virtual labs can hold for teaching and learning
Any skepticism that can surround virtual labs
A meta-analysis of the current 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
