Join our exclusive session to hear from a distinguished CSU professor who has successfully used Labster to cultivate student engagement and boost learning

  • Come away with an understanding of how easy it is to assign simulations for pre-labs or homework assignments that increase learning outcomes.
  • Discover insights and strategies on how you, too, can improve course pass rates without having to invest hours with a new tool.
  • Learn how to take advantage of steeply discounted pricing available only to CSU institutions. Your Chancellor's Office is centralizing the ordering process for you in 2024-2025. You don't need to get signatures or lean on the purchasing and legal departments at your institution if you take advantage of Labster at the discounted CSU rate during the open purchase window.

Plus, you'll hear directly from Dr. Dermot Donnelly-Hermosillo of Fresno State about the three things that he has seen change in his introductory-level science classes since he replaced traditional multiple choice homework exercises with Labster science simulations.
