The Labster Dashboard is a comprehensive virtual laboratory platform that enables students to conduct realistic science experiments in a safe, accessible digital environment. Through interactive 3D simulations, students can perform complex laboratory procedures, observe scientific phenomena, and apply theoretical concepts in practical scenarios without the constraints of physical lab spaces or materials. It provides instructors with a centralized hub to assign virtual lab activities, monitor student progress, and assess learning outcomes through detailed performance analytics. Students benefit from an engaging, gamified learning experience with embedded theory refreshers, guided feedback, and self-paced exploration that reinforces scientific concepts and laboratory techniques. Its intuitive interface makes it easy to navigate between different simulations, review completed work, and track individual progress across various laboratory disciplines from biology and chemistry to physics and engineering.
