Labster: A Decade of Research to Improve Science Learning

Labster research history began when Dr. Mads Bonde observed students having difficulty staying engaged and arriving prepared for lab work while running a lab at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Together with co-founder Michael Bodekaer Jensen, a computer scientist and software architect, Bonde invented a laboratory simulation platform to excite learners with engaging storylines, missions, and project-based learning. That software formed the basis for what would become Labster.
