We welcome both our new classes and our veterans. Our community continues to grow and this year, we have 324 members.

Global Lab

Welcome to Global Lab, an online laboratory where students across the globe investigate the world together. It is for learners who are curious about science and who enjoy exploring their world, asking questions, and conducting experiments to find answers.

Notes from the Project Director

Dr. Boris Berenfeld Dear Colleagues,
This year, the Global School Laboratory (Global Lab) celebrates its 20th year. Over the course of two decades, a thousand schools in 35 countries have participated in our project. According to a UNESCO publication, Global Lab is “the largest class in the world.”

Scientist's Corner

The Study Site

How can we study the Earth? We can’t put it into a test tube or on a glass slide like biologists who examine living cells.

Exploring Your World

How well do we know the world around us? Are there any puzzles or secrets in flowers, fruit, colors, shapes and forms—all the things that we see everyday around us?
