Online labs provide students with the possibility to conduct scientific experiments in an online environment. Remotely-operated labs (remote labs) offer an opportunity to experiment with real equipment from remote locations. Virtual labs simulate the scientific equipment. Data sets present data from already performed lab experiments. Please use the filters on the right to find appropriate online labs for your class.
Please note that the Go-Lab Authoring Platform Graasp is no longer maintained. This means that it is not possible to create and publish new Go-Lab Inquiry Learning Spaces using the labs listed on this page. However, you can still access the labs and use them directly on the providers' websites with help of the preview links, which you will find on the dedicated lab pages. If you are interested in creating and using Inquiry Learning Spaces in your classroom, please visit the new Authoring Platform Graasp.org

A 3D interactive simulation of a lab device to study Snell Descartes law. Angle of incidence and index of refraction can be modified, angle of refraction is then measured on a protractor.
Students can change (distance and angle) and study the incoming white light ray and the effect it has on the outgoing rays.
This simulation allows to observe the refraction of light through a converging lens on an abstract level.
In this lab, you can explore the phenomenon of total internal reflection (such as an in a optic fibre). The light source is the purple dot in medium 2. The light is incident on the interface between the two media at the position of the green dot, which is fixed.
Through this remote lab students can experiment what happens with two rays of light passing through a biconvex, biconcave or convex lens. They can control the lens at any time.
In this lab, you can explore the diffraction of waves by a single slit. The width of the opening is controlled by the slider. Initially, the waves are shown in black and white (grayscale), with both the peaks and troughs being white. Black indicates a zero amplitude.
This is a simulation of what happens when polarized light with an intensity of 800 W/m2 is incident on a polarizer. The light is traveling from left to right.
The light source can either be the red dot in medium 1 or the purple dot in medium 2. In either case, the light is incident on the interface between the two media at the position of the green dot, which is fixed.
This simulation allows students to study the Fermat principle with refraction. Students have the ability to change the refractive indices and change the location of the source and detector of light.
