21st Gen EdTech Tools

When Reality Meets Simulation in the Classroom Imagine students mixing explosive reagents or dissecting rare specimens virtually —experiences now accessible via Labster simulations. With lab access constrained by budget cuts, safety protocols, and global disruptions, educators increasingly rely on immersive platforms. Labster offers interactive 2D and VR environments where learners conduct experiments, make mistakes, and receive immediate feedback. But do these simulations strengthen comprehension, or are they superficial tech novelties? We explore empirical studies to examine this question.

When the Past Becomes Present Imagine standing on the streets of London as the Blitz rages overhead, feeling the tension in the air as bombs fall nearby. Or walking the cobblestone paths of medieval Europe, hearing merchants call out to passersby in a language that hasn't been spoken for centuries. For generations, history has been confined to textbooks and lectures—static narratives that often fail to capture students' imaginations. But what if we could step into history rather than merely read about it? This is precisely what TimeLooper VR promises to deliver, transforming passive learning into an active, visceral experience that could fundamentally change how we teach and understand the past.
