DESCRIPTION
Labster is a platform for virtual labs and science simulations. We can engage students with game-based elements that inspire them to explore science. Students then apply their knowledge to solve a real-world problem within the context of a story. Inside the 3D environment of an immersive simulation, students master curriculum-aligned theory, interact with advanced equipment, learn techniques and perform experiments.
