Vanessa Ayer Miller; Timothy Marks; Dorothea K. Thompson – Journal of Microbiology & Biology Education, 2025
Interest in virtual laboratory simulations as a pedagogical tool continues to grow, given the advantages of flexibility, scalability, technology integration, and interactive visualizations. We developed a laboratory model that integrates virtual lab simulations (VLS) and traditional in-person (IP) lab experiences for targeted skill development. In…

Nair, Abhilash; Sawtelle, Vashti – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2019
A common hope of many physics educators and researchers is that students leave the course with a stronger sense that physics is relevant to them than when they entered the course. Multiple survey measures have attempted to measure shifts in students' beliefs on the relevance of physics but frequently the results show a negative shift in students'…

Dyrberg, Nadia Rahbek; Treusch, Alexander H.; Wiegand, Claudia – Journal of Biological Education, 2017
Potential benefits of simulations and virtual laboratory exercises in natural sciences have been both theorised and studied recently. This study reports findings from a pilot study on student attitude, motivation and self-efficacy when using the virtual laboratory programme Labster. The programme allows interactive learning about the workflows and…

Carvajal-Rodriguez, Antonio – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2012
Mutate is a program developed for teaching purposes to impart a virtual laboratory class for undergraduate students of Genetics in Biology. The program emulates the so-called fluctuation test whose aim is to distinguish between spontaneous and adaptive mutation hypotheses in bacteria. The plan is to train students in certain key multidisciplinary…
