The Easy Lab

What does this filter include?

In Easy Labs, students perform basic experiments, explore the properties of common materials, test simple concepts and collect basic data. These simple, engaging experiments help students understand core scientific principles, tools and techniques without the stress of complex technical details or maths. By working through these foundational lab activities, students gain the confidence and skills needed to tackle more complex labs and projects, paving the way for them to become engineering wizards for their future labs. 

Here are some examples of the Easy filter being applied:
