FlyLab JS
New! A javascript version of the popular FlyLab program in Biology Labs Online. It will run in any browser on any device. This program should be used instead of the Flash-based Drosophila and the java-based Flylab.


The Virtual Courseware Project produces interactive, online simulations for the life science laboratory or for earth science field studies. The activities are designed to enhance an existing curriculum and include online assessments. They can be used by students ranging from middle school, high school, or college classrooms.
