One of the project tasks was the purchase of a WE-lab laboratory for the schools participating in this project.

WE-LAB is an innovative product with an internet platform that lets students build their own analysis laboratory and create scientific projects simply and interactively using smart mobile technologies. Users can share their experiences with the scientific community of WE-LAB through the web portal.

It is designed for students of all grades, but specifically to be easily used by young students. 

WE-LAB enables all students to develop extremely important skills for natural sciences - laboratory skills. It consists of main module that controls other modules, each having very specific function

By working in labs students arrive at scientific answers through their own research, experiments and projects, and instead of being passive recipients of knowledge, they become active participants in the teaching process.

The kit also includes reagents and equipment to complete the experience. All modules can be controlled using an app and the system includes the opportunity of sharing the experiments made on a portal, a web page where single school or groups can shere results or include other institutions. 

WE-LAB is easily approachable by students, compared to a traditional lab, because it is used through mobile devices, it is much cheaper, and requires only 15 cm² of space.

The aim of using WE-LAB to provide a basic equipment to put in practice and the training contents delivered by the project, allowing to analyze the samples collected by students and make the necessary scientific conclusions developing lab skills.

This product meets our requirements and is the most convenient to use. It will enable partners from all countries to involve students in experimental and research work for the purpose of studying biology or chemistry.
