A laboratory is a room, designed to have controlled conditions to conduct scientific or technological research, experiments, and measurements. Labs in schools & universities are used to teach students new concepts through experiments and show them the practical applications of what they learn. In a laboratory, scientific problems are explored and solutions are proposed by learners under the guidance of an educator. Lab experience is significant for a student’s advanced learning as it gives the students a sense of how the theoretical concepts they learn can be applied to the real world. Learning becomes interesting and fun due to the knowledge that their learnings are of practical use.
Labs are the incubators of curiosity, where hands-on experiments are conducted and theories learned in the classrooms make sense. These are the spaces where students’ aspirations to become scientists, engineers, and innovators thrive.
