The Labflow Continuity Solution

Catalyst Education was founded by chemical educators who champion the importance of hands-on lab learning. We designed Labflow to wrap an engaging digital curriculum around the traditional in-lab experience.

Yet we also understand that today’s lab coordinators and instructors need a learning platform that can effortlessly flex between your in-lab and online lab learning experiences. Whether you are teaching lab sections 100% online, are running hybrid (50% online) or HyFlex courses, or expecting high degrees of student absenteeism, Labflow has you covered.

No more switching among different platforms and learning experiences as you flow from in-lab to online. In Labflow, the only difference is the experiment mechanics and data collection:

IN THE LAB
Students do the experiment hands-on and use Labflow to record the data and observations.
ONLINE
Online, students are given data and make observations that approximate what they might collect and see in the lab.

How? Randomized Visual Data

Labflow’s most powerful features are its digital data collection, lab report writing, and grading workflow. Key benefits for online lab experiences within our flexible platform are:

Randomized data: Different data for each student to mitigate cheating.

Visual data: Randomized images and videos allow online students to apply data collection and observational skills to mimic the in-lab experience.
