What does the new simulator frame in the Learning Platform contain?

With the implementation of the new CloudLabs platform, the information on how the simulator, the learning unit and the guide are presented was unified for both the teacher and the student.

This information can be consulted once you enter the simulator.

With the teacher role you can access any simulation. Once the simulation is selected, you can press the "Access the laboratory" button.

Once inside the simulation, you can access the aforementioned resources by selecting the information you wish to view in the frame.

For the teaching role, the simulation is available in the "Simulator" tab, followed by the name of the learning unit. In this case, for example, a simulation associated with the "Genetics" learning unit was opened, followed by the guide that explains the development of the simulation and finally the video associated with the laboratory practice. This video is available by pressing the arrow on the right side of the frame.

For the student role, the information available in the frame only contains the simulator, the learning unit and the guide, the video is not included.

Thus, this information is unified in one place, making consultation much easier and more accessible at the time the practice is being developed.

The guide associated with the simulator is a document that can be downloaded in .pdf format.
