Bring Your Lab to Your Students

Wondering how students can get hands-on experience to learn the critical physiology skills usually taught in the practical lab during the Coronavirus epidemic? BIOPAC is introducing Biopac Student Lab Home (BSL HOME)—a new product specifically geared towards teaching physiology labs remotely. BSL HOME will allow your students to conduct physiology labs in the safety of their own home, dorm room, or any remote location.

BSL-HOME is a complete physiology lab solution for both students and instructors:

  • For students—BIOPAC ships a small, lightweight, hand-held device with integrated software directly to the student. Students learn by doing—they are guided through lessons with step-by-step instructions in the software. Once they have collected the data, they submit it to the instructor for review and feedback. Students ship the device back to BIOPAC for testing and sanitizing when the lab work is completed.
  • For instructors—BSL HOME provides physiology lessons on heart signals (ECG), brain waves (EEG), muscle activity (EMG), eye movement (EOG), and Respiration. BIOPAC manages student orders, delivery logistics, consumables, support, and safe handling of all items—making it easy for instructors to continue running their practical labs and for students to gain critical practical skills.

Join BIOPAC and learn how BSL HOME can help you teach hands-on physiology labs during the Coronavirus epidemic. We’ve invited Professor Cindy Marolf, Ed.D., to share her experience teaching remotely and we’ll share our ideas for how you can thrive in this new era.

Attend this workshop if you are concerned about:

  • Offering a practical lab component to students outside of the lab
  • Successfully teaching students who need to develop important skills
  • Providing real-time feedback and assessments to remote students
  • Students not enrolling in remote labs
  • Meeting enrollment goals of the department and institution

This webinar is for instructors of:

  • Human Physiology
  • Psychophysiology/Psychology/Neurophysiology
  • Exercise Physiology & Biomechanics
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Biology
  • Pharmacology & Toxicology
