In this self-paced course, you’ll learn strategies for incorporating LabXchange content into your lesson design by choosing and adapting the right resource for the right moment and sequencing content to support student learning. After completing this training, you’ll know how to design lessons that use LabXchange with intention, turning the LabXchange library into a purposeful tool to support your students.
The course is structured around the natural arc of a lesson—from opening to assessment—illustrating how LabXchange content can be incorporated to meet the pedagogical goals of each part of your lesson.
Across the 5 modules, you’ll build skills to:
Use LabXchange resources to activate prior knowledge, build context, or spark curiosity in your lesson openings.
Choose the right resource to introduce new material and teach core content clearly.
Help learners build science skills like experimental design, data analysis, and scientific argumentation.
Give students practice and reinforcement through LabXchange simulations, interactives, and activities.
Meet the needs of every learner by adapting and differentiating LabXchange content.
Extend learning beyond the classroom by connecting lesson content to real-world applications.
This course picks up where the basic platform training leaves off, so it assumes some hands-on experience with the platform. Before diving in, you should feel comfortable with:
Navigating the LabXchange platform
Searching for and locating relevant resources in the LabXchange library (or via a search engine)
Sharing a LabXchange resource with your students via a link or in class
If these are all new to you, we suggest completing the free Introduction to LabXchange course first.
