A Texas Medical School's Online Lab Relies on Simulations to Teach Microbiology - DAN CARNEVALE

One benefit of teaching a science laboratory online, some professors have found, is that if a student messes up, no one gets hurt -- and no money is wasted.

Freeman, chairwoman of clinical laboratory sciences at the Medical Branch's School of Allied Health Sciences.
