plays important role in teaching by making students to

Improve the functioning of brain and creates a

dynamic that can inspire learners to develop skills
and build an emotional connection to learning and
subject matter.
 DISADVANTAGES

• Virtual labs were not as engaging due deeper connection with their online students
to the lack of physicality. than they had with their face-to-face
students
ADVANTAGES

communication was too impersonal and students

could not demonstrate their full personality.

• virtual labs could be more effective than face-

to-face labs, as it was believed that they could
receive better results with virtual labs.

thinking, don’t bother trying to teach them.
Instead, give them a tool, the use of which
will lead to new ways of thinking.”
