We’ve worked with hundreds of instructors over the last year, and I can’t help but notice some common themes have emerged when it comes to the challenges of shifting their lab courses online. But there are solutions to those challenges! So if you’re on the fence about shifting your labs online, here is some key information that might help you make the leap. 📕The kind of labs you use play a key role in quality and effectiveness. 👉To replicate the quality and rigor of on-campus labs: •Don’t rely 100% on virtual simulations. •Use a mix of hands-on and virtual labs. •Use QM-certified curriculum. 📕Virtual labs and hands-on labs both have benefits in certain circumstances and should be used together. 👉To incorporate both effectively: •Use virtual simulations to introduce basic concepts, provide students with a low-stakes environment, and as pre-labs for on-campus labs. •Use hands-on labs to build an engaging, interactive online lab experience that helps students apply concepts to the real world. 📕When it comes to cost, it’s important to look at the full picture, especially when you consider the time and cost of on-campus labs for students, instructors and the institution. 👉To keep costs balanced, consider: •Hands-on labs at home mean students don’t have to commute, which saves them from paying for gas, childcare, etc. •Mixing in virtual labs (not every lab has to be hands-on!) or shifting to open source textbooks for your lecture course. 📕Safety doesn’t have to be a deal breaker. Choose a partner whose hands-on lab development and testing process is built around the fact that instructors are not present when students perform experiments. 👉To set the expectation that safety is priority: •Use lab safety lessons and training before students access course content. •Always provide clear and in-depth instructions. •Make sure students have PPE and instructions for handling lab equipment. •Use small quantities of chemicals to enhance safety. This is just a handful of takeaways we’ve learned from our awesome Science Interactive community. If you’re offering labs online, what’s your biggest lesson learned? ⬇️ #stemed #distanceed #onlinelabs

Not all ed-tech products support teachers in providing joyful, responsive instruction, but how can teachers and systems know who is "walking the walk?" I am excited that the organizations noted in this Education Week article are developing resources and standards to evaluate the quality of ed-tech products. Technology can be part of joyful, high-quality, and culturally relevant learning. At Student Achievement Partners, we are developing approaches that will support teachers and leaders in assessing the ed-tech tools they currently use and making informed, evidence-based choices when finding new tools to support classroom instruction. https://lnkd.in/ggJSdbw5
