Access to professional scientific equipment, especially for students, is hard to come by. Even with availability, a science lab necessitates numerous safety protocols that must be thoroughly addressed before anyone can safely set foot inside. All of this planning, safety concerns, and time constraints increase the strain on teachers ability to provide the best possible lab science education. Because of this overwhelming lack of access to hands-on scientific training, for the majority of students, teachers are forced to use traditional text books as the foundation of their lessons – these text-based lessons tend to be under-engaging, dry, and confusing.
Enter Labster, the virtual lab simulator and training environment. With over 80 lessons in subjects like biology, chemistry, engineering, general science, medicine, and physics, all of which use real-world lab simulations to convey knowledge, Labster can open up a world of opportunities to students that may never have a similar opportunity otherwise. Aligning with AP standards, and offering integrations for required teacher documentation, Labster provides a readily accessible tool for high schools and universities to provide students with previously inaccessible training opportunities.
Compatible with standard desktop and also Virtual Reality (currently only on Daydream and Lenovo Mirage with plans to be headset agnostic), Labster provides an interactive simulation of professional laboratories which in invaluable for training purposes.
