Used Labster monthly for 4-6 months

When our school first got Labster, the onboarding staff was extremely helpful and down to earth! Enjoyed working with and learning from them! My favorite feature about Labster is how it makes concepts that are typically difficult to simulate, available for students to experience. With students coming back from being remote, it has sometimes been a struggle to help the students adjust back to in-person learning. Having Labster has provided ways for students to still collaborate, break out of their comfort zone and still experience science concepts. It has helped some of my students be more willing to move on to real-life lab experiments after having chances to fail and learn from their mistakes online first.
Jonathan Adkins found Labster:
- Moderately reduces teacher workload“Labster simulations contain a premade lesson with quizes and activities. It automatically grades the assignment for teachers.”
- Significantly improves teaching efficiency“The simulations provide an experience for concepts that can be difficult to simulate in the classroom.”
- Significantly builds student knowledge“Because of the immersive experience, students are able to apply knowledge they wouldn't always be able to in the classroom.”
