Back = **Online Science and Virtual Labs: A Hands-On Training Workshop** =

//You've heard about virtual labs before, but now is your chance to learn how to integrate them into your online science courses! Here is a unique opportunity to learn from the virtual lab developers themselves. See new tools and technologies and pick an an-depth training session that best fits your needs!//

//In this workshop, participants will learn about the broad range of practices and technologies available for implementing high quality science learning in online courses. The workshop will feature an initial session of live demonstrations and test drives of various cyberlearning tools, virtual labs, and other online laboratory science resources. Participants will then select an in-depth hands-on training session provided by the tool developer and learn how to integrate one of the tools in an online science course. The goal of the workshop is to help online teachers and course developers to improve the quality of their science courses, to exchange best practices, and learn about the latest tools and technologies for online science education.//

//The workshop will consist of two highly interactive, hands-on sessions://
 * 1) //Hands-on demo session. Check out interactive and hands-on demonstrations of online science courses, investigations, resources, and technologies. Learn about new tools to enhance your current courses.//
 * 2) //In-depth hands-on training session. Select the virtual lab tool that best fits your interests or needs and participate in a training session that will help you learn how to integrate the tool into your courses. Get tips on how to make your science courses more hands-on and engaging for learners. Each training session is led by the developer of the virtual lab tool, so you will be able to have direct interaction with the experts!//

//**Call for Presenters!**// //Developers/publishers who are interested in either demonstrating their virtual lab/resource and/or conducting an in-depth training session for participants are encouraged to contact Dr. Jona. Space is limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.//
