LabTutor

 makes teaching easier by combining the following into one program:

Data analysis Report completion Report submission

Background scientific information Step-by-step instructions Real-time data acquisition

No training is necessary to use LabTutor. The mix of step-by-step experiment instructions and interactive activities ensure that the understanding of scientific principles remain the key focus. In the past, students had to refer to manuals and use several software programs to complete experiments and laboratory reports. Now all they need is LabTutor.

Pre-experiment preparation is virtually eliminated by including all the information and required tools within the LabTutor experiments. No written notes or settings files are required. Each experiment is ready to go. Filter and range adjustments are not necessary. Acquired data, analysis and written reports are automatically and conveniently saved within one file for easy review or printing.
