Provider of virtual science laboratory simulations for universities and schools.
We've integrated Labster into several modules and the feedback from students has been positive. Being able to run dangerous or expensive experiments virtually is a big plus for safety and budget. I'd love to see even more advanced simulations, but what's there works very well.
Safe virtual experiments, student approval
Want more advanced simulations
Labster's virtual simulations let our students run experiments they could never do with our limited physical lab budget. The scenarios are scientifically accurate and the quiz checkpoints make sure students actually understand the theory. During remote teaching it was an absolute lifesaver for our department.
Our chemistry students love the immersive Labster simulations and the way they can repeat experiments without wasting reagents. The science content is top notch and aligns well with our syllabus. The only downside is that some simulations are heavy and load slowly on older lab computers.
The Labster catalogue covers a huge range of science topics and the simulations genuinely help students grasp difficult concepts. We're happy with the learning outcomes. The institutional licensing cost is the one sticking point for a smaller school like ours, but the quality justifies a good portion of it.

Realistic simulations, great for remote learning
Strong content, unlimited experiment repeats
Slow loading on older hardware
Wide catalogue, effective learning
Licensing pricey for small schools
Labster has been a valuable addition to our university courses, especially for visualising molecular processes. Students engage well with it. Setting up and mapping simulations to our existing curriculum took our faculty some time, but the support team helped. A worthwhile investment overall.
Engaging, good support team
Setup takes faculty effort
