Virtual laboratories are computer-based simulations of real laboratory environments, allowing students to conduct experiments and practice scientific procedures in a digital space. These innovative tools have gained popularity in STEM education, particularly in situations where physical labs are unavailable or impractical.
Benefits and features:
- Cost-effective and safe alternative to physical labs
- Accessible from anywhere with internet connection
- Allow for repetition and self-paced learning
- Can simulate dangerous or expensive experiments
Virtual labs complement traditional hands-on experiences and prepare students for real-world scientific practices.
