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Please note that the Go-Lab Authoring Platform Graasp is no longer maintained.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
If you are looking for online labs selected for the curricula of Benin, Kenya or Nigeria, please visit our Collections page.
If you select labs in English, the descriptions on this website will still be displayed in English. However, when you include the lab in an ILS and change the language setting of the ILS to English, the lab will be displayed in English within the ILS.

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.
This interactive simulation allows users to visualize the double-slit experiment.
Do you ever wonder how a greenhouse gas affects the climate, or why the ozone layer is important? Use the sim to explore how light interacts with molecules in our atmosphere.
In this lab, you can explore what light does when it encounters a diffraction grating. Use at least one of the checkboxes to turn on a beam of light.
In Newton's rings, a curved watch glass sits on top of a flat piece of glass. A thin film of air is in between the two - the thin film has a thickness that is zero where the two pieces of glass touch, and gradually increases as you move away from that point.
In this lab, you can explore how a rainbow is formed. Refraction plays an important role - when white light from the Sun enters a droplet, it refracts into the droplet, experiences total internal reflection at the back of the droplet, and then refracts back out into the air.
In this lab, you can explore the refraction of light through a rectangular block (you can modify its refraction index). The light is emitted by the red dot, which is in air. The light strikes the side of a rectangular block.
In this lab, you can explore what happens when unpolarized light, with an intensity of 800 W/m2 is incident on a sequence of three polarizers. The light is traveling in the +x direction and the polarizers are located at x = 10 cm, x = 20 cm, and x = 30 cm.
This lab builds of the lab titled, 'Refraction and the role of time'.
