Delivering interactive biology lab experiences has never been easier.
Hands-on labs for effective, high quality online courses
When you want to more deeply engage students and create a learning experience comparable to the on-campus experience, be sure to incorporate hands-on labs.
- Foster a more authentic and engaging lab experience by mirroring the quality of a campus lab when you have students physically conduct experiments
- Instill and reinforce the knowledge and critical thinking skills students need to pursue additional coursework in biology
- Increase the likelihood students can use your course for transfer credit if needed
- Implement quickly and easily into your current courses
Digital biology labs for greater flexibility & affordability
When you want to balance costs, engage students in new ways, and reinforce key concepts in a low-stakes way, turn to our virtual biology labs.
- Increase access & affordability without the need for expensive or large-scale lab equipment
- Use multiple, different labs to expose students to complex and hard-to-observe phenomena, including photosynthesis, cellular respiration lab or a macromolecular virtual lab
- Minimize any potential safety concerns & ensure practicality
- Implement quickly and easily into your current courses
Rigor is our lifeblood!
Whether digital or hands-on, our bio labs are produced with quality and rigor in mind. And unlike other providers, our bio labs are:
- Built on extensive academic research, developed by Ph.D. scientists, and peer-reviewed by active biology professors
- Tested by in-house instructional designers for quality, accuracy, safety, and ADA compliance
- Focused on today’s innovative technology using lab-grade materials/equipment in order to encourage student exploration and career readiness
