Watch a 2 minute video of the latest version of the 3D virtual lab in action
3D Virtual Laboratory
The 3D Virtual Lab simulates the laboratory environment and allows users to interact with simulated equipment to perform experiments and execute work flow. Developed using a combination of high end 3D animation software developed for the film industry and the latest web games technology, it requires no special hardware, software or equipment to use. It is integrated with the LEARNEXX platform and takes advantage of its user control, assessment, tracking and reporting functionality.
It is for organizations that:
- Need better utilisation of their teaching laboratories
- Need to train, assess and certify knowledge of laboratory workflow, skills or equipment
- Must get students and trainees to retain more knowledge than can be achieved with just video instruction
- Require a process or workflow to be followed in a laboratory.
- Want to promote excellence in teaching and learning innovation
Benefits
- Improve safety and reduce the cost of breakages by training laboratory users on equipment before they use it for real
- Improve lab teaching staff efficiency by teaching students basic techniques and assessing them on them before they enter a real laboratory
- Ensure best practice is followed and efficiency improvements identified by allowing user to rehearse laboratory workflow execution before doing it for real
- Teach specific lessons and highlight common errors by building these into lab procedures
