utureLab is an award-winning series of science simulation software that offers students and teachers an exciting, contemporary way to learn about science. Using a PC or Macintosh computer, students can test the Ideal Gas Laws in the safety of a virtual lab or experience the effects of gravity by bouncing a soccer ball on the Moon. With FutureLab you're not restricted to the confines of a traditional laboratory - your only boundaries are imagination and the desire to learn.What makes FutureLab different from other science simulation software for education:
Covers a Wide Range of Grades - FutureLab is the perfect science education tool for students in grades 4-12. In elementary schools, teachers successfully use FutureLab as a demonstration tool. Students at the high-school and middle-school levels can explore and experiment on their own.
Features Valuable On-Line Help - Each FutureLab title comes with an extensive on-line Help system, which includes a comprehensive glossary, a list of frequently asked questions, and troubleshooting tips.
Comes in PC and Macintosh Versions - No matter what type of computer system your school has, you can install and run FutureLab with our new hybrid version.
Is Easy to Install and Easy to Use - We believe your students should be busy learning science - not learning how to use a complicated software program. With FutureLab, there is absolutely no learning curve. Installation is quick and easy, and your students will be conducting their first experiment in minutes.
Integrates Technology into Your Curriculum - Let's face it. Technology has reached the classroom and teachers are under enormous pressure to integrate it into their curriculum. With FutureLab, your students get the benefit of top-notch science instruction, and you've taken the first important step in actually utilizing the classroom computer to its full potential.
Incorporates Photorealistic Graphics - Lab equipment in FutureLab simulations looks and behaves like the real thing. That's because we photograph high-quality equipment and create images you can manipulate on screen.
Features Outstanding Multimedia Effects - FutureLab incorporates audio, text, and amazingly realistic graphics to provide students with a true multimedia learning experience.
Creates Expanded Learning Opportunities - With FutureLab, students can conduct experiments that would be too expensive or too dangerous - even impossible - to conduct in a traditional classroom laboratory.
Comes with Toll-Free Technical Support - At many schools, long-distance telephone calls are restricted. Within the U.S. and Canada, simply call our toll-free number (888.266.9294), and one of our friendly representatives will be glad to assist you.
Costs Less - The cost of FutureLab software titles is actually lower than many competitive products. And compared to the expense of outfitting an entire classroom laboratory, FutureLab is a genuine bargain for money-conscious school districts.
Coming Soon . . .
A comprehensive Teacher's Guide for each FutureLab title currently is in development. Call Simulations Plus for more information.
