Overview

LabAuthor software provides educators with an easy-to-use tool for editing and writing LabTutor experiments. LabAuthor users can edit any of the preconfigured physiology, pharmacology or biology experiments, or create their own experiments using the student-friendly LabTutor interface and step-by-step experiment structure.

LabAuthor educators do not have to learn any programming or html code. The software has a straightforward graphical user interface. You simply click, hold and drag new objects, text and graphics into the experiment pages. Users can also edit the pages of existing LabTutor experiments quickly and easily.

Using LabAuthor, LabTutor educators can:

  • Delete, edit or expand the background information
  • Provide students with set-up instructions specific to your lab's equipment and layout
  • Edit terminology to match your institution's curriculum
  • Shorten experiments by removing exercises or dividing experiments into two parts
  • Expand experiments by adding new data acquisition and analysis exercises
  • Use the LabTutor Kernel to create settings and sample data files so students can record more or different signals during the experiment
  • Create new tables and graphs to log and display the data recorded in the acquisition panels
  • Insert new report questions, or make existing questions easier or more difficult
  • Add pop-up windows into any experiment page to offer students more information and recording hints
  • Use all these tools to create an entirely new LabTutor experiment to perfectly fit their students and classroom
