LabXchange

"Everyone needs science, and science needs everyone. When LabXchange launched on January 22, 2020, this was our message to you. We could never have guessed just how true those words would soon ring, when just weeks later, we found ourselves grappling with a global pandemic." To read the full message from our managing director, and to view highlights from LabXchange's first year, we invite you to explore our annual report, available now: http://ow.ly/l5Q450Dpjrr #STEM #Education #Innovation

Today is #NationalOnlineLearningDay! 💻🧑🔬 At LabXchange, we believe that online learning is the key to unlocking access to #ScienceEducation for everyone, everywhere. That’s why we’re dedicated to bringing high-quality digital learning resources—like virtual lab simulations, interactive animations, and annotated videos—to learners and educators around the world!

Explore the fascinating intersection of biology and physics with BiteScis' "The Momentum of Swimming Dolphins" teaching guide. In this lesson, students will apply the conservation of momentum to the graceful movements of dolphins, examining how a closed system works in the natural world. Perfect for an introductory high school physics class, this lesson brings the wonders of marine biology into the physics classroom, making complex concepts both engaging and relatable! 📚 Teaching Guide: https://ow.ly/uvLK50Tf1Ba #STEMEducation #ScienceEducation #SciEd #LearningResource #CollaboratorResource #STEM #BiteScis #LabXchange #Physics #Biology #HighSchoolPhysics

We’re excited to announce that our Data Science–Driven Science Education (DSDSE) project has published a new learning pathway, "Experimental Design, Data, and Variables," which introduces the critical concept of experimental design and explores its importance within the field of data science. In this pathway, students will learn how to generate testable research questions, classify variables, and design experiments that reduce bias while ethically displaying data, all while recognizing patterns and confounding variables that influence data interpretation. 💡 Why it matters: Experimental design is essential to trust conclusions in research. This pathway equips students with the tools to approach experiments and data ethically, reducing bias and understanding how data tells a story.

Thank you to the DoD STEM for their generous support! #STEM #DataScience #ScienceEducation #ExperimentalDesign #LabXchange #NGSS #LearningResources #DSDSE

This teaching guide “Traveling Antibodies: Membrane Transport across the Placenta” from BiteScis dives into the fascinating world of membrane transport. In this lesson, students can explore how antibodies are transferred from parent to child during development, tying in concepts of active and passive transport. What makes this lesson even more special is its commitment to inclusivity. This guide thoughtfully avoids gendered pronouns, ensuring that all students feel represented and respected in the classroom. Perfect for an introductory high school biology course, this engaging lesson will deepen your students' understanding of scientific processes while embracing diversity. 📚 Teaching guide: https://ow.ly/JkGH50Tf1yH #STEMEducation #ScienceEducation #SciEd #LearningResource #CollaboratorResource #STEM #BiteScis #LabXchange #HighSchoolBiology

LabXchange's RDEISE project is dedicated to creating equitable opportunities by providing resources that address racial inequity in healthcare, education, and STEM. Did you know? Black STEM college majors are more likely to leave STEM than their white peers, either by switching fields or by leaving college without a degree. This highlights the urgency of addressing systemic racism in STEM education and higher education in general. We invite you to take part in removing these barriers. By integrating RDEISE’s interdisciplinary resources into your classrooms and programs, you can make a meaningful impact. Take the RDEISE pledge to commit to creating a more inclusive and equitable environment in your teaching. By doing so, you’re not only standing with us in this mission but also actively contributing to breaking down systemic barriers that prevent racially marginalized students from thriving in STEM. Together, we can transform science education for all learners! Learn more about our RDEISE pledge: https://ow.ly/7Wbb50Ti34a #RDEISEPledge #InclusiveEducation #STEMEquality #LabXchange

Congratulations to the Amgen Biotech Experience on this incredible milestone of reaching 1 million students! Like LabXchange, ABE strives to empower learners worldwide with free, high-quality science education resources. We are proud to support ABE educators and learners engaged in a hybrid learning experience with virtual lab simulations and other resources: https://lnkd.in/dfpBtwKE Alongside ABE, we're proud to be part of the Amgen Foundation's mission to inspire the next generation of scientists. Here's to many more milestones ahead as we continue to work together to empower minds and advance scientific discovery.

This National Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) Week, we celebrate the legacy and impact of over 100 institutions that have shaped the lives of countless Black professionals. HBCUs have contributed greatly towards the success of numerous Black Americans, producing trailblazers like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Oprah Winfrey, and Vice President Kamala Harris. As we continue to highlight the importance of these institutions, we invite you to explore more about the rich history of HBCUs and their contribution to equitable education in a 2023 interview with HBCU graduate Talyia Griffin.. Read about the unique experiences and accomplishments of HBCU alumni and how these universities continue to uplift and inspire future generations in STEM. https://ow.ly/nK2650Ti37y #HBCUWeek #NationalHBCUWeek #EducationForAll #BlackExcellence #LabXchange

We recently interviewed BiteScis co-founder and project director Stephanie Keep, learning all about their mission to make science accessible to everyone!
