Kamen T. Engel; Jonathan Davidson; Alison Jolley; Ben Kennedy; Alexander R. L. Nichols – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2024
A virtual microscope resource was created when face-to-face labs were halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020 to replicate the learning goals of an introductory petrology course on microscopy. This virtual microscope resource utilized images and videos of thin sections, as well as 3D rock models to allow students to complete labs online.…

Ying Zhang; Yuqin Yang; Yongkang Chu; Daner Sun; Jiazhen Xu; Yuhui Zheng – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2024
Virtual laboratories are transformative tools in science education, yet comprehensive reviews of their prospects are limited. This study addresses this gap through a bibliometric analysis of 218 articles published between 2013 and 2023. Key findings included: (1) research has evolved from initial exploration to rapid expansion; (2) virtual labs…
