We give participants the opportunity to expand their understanding of concepts, acquire new knowledge and scaffold these new competencies on existing knowledge through a diverse selection of interactive steps. Design learning sessions that enable learners to build on each other’s suggestions and input. Build on the group`s work by continuous evaluation as a basis for producing something better together. With Colab you use the group to change the group!
Colab is an interactive presentation tool designed for collaborative learning and reflection.
Through a multitude of features Colab facilitates for interaction and participant involvement. By involving the participants new opportunities are created to expand the understanding of concepts, acquire new knowledge, and build upon the preexisting knowledge of the students.
You can create your own sessions from scratch or upload existing content (such as PowerPoints) and then add interaction to them. You can also use CoLabs from our library. A Colab consist of steps. The steps you can choose between in Colab consist of different interactive features that facilitate participant involvement in engaging ways.
The learning sessions you create in Colab makes it easy for the learners to build upon each other’s contributions. This means that the learners are continually assessing their own and other’s work as a foundation to produce something better together. With Colab you are using the group to change the group.
Colab is a tool for creating, editing and conducting learning sessions with multiple participants.
You can create your own Lab by combining different steps and filling them with text, images and questions.
When you are conducting a session a code will be automatically generated so that the participants can connect with their PCs, tablets or mobile phones to interact with tasks and questions.
After a completed session you can export a report with the questions and answers from the participants in a separate file. This information can be shared with all or a select group of participants with the click of a button.
Click start on the page called my labs or click start a new session when you are in editor-mode. This will take you to the presenter view.
You exit presenter view by clicking end presenter view in the hamburger menu or by clicking the escape button on your keyboard.
If you have already used a Lab in a session you have the option between continuing that session or starting a new one. If you start a new session, a new session-code will be generated for the participants to connect to the Lab.
The participants connect to the session with a unique six-digit code at https://learnlab.net When you are in presenter view, the six-digit code for the session will be visible in the banner on the top left side of the screen. You can enlarge the code by clicking show code in the hamburger menu.

You can export the answers from the participants in either a PDF- or an Excel file. Open the Lab you wish to export data from and select show general settings under the Lab’s title on the right-hand side -> export data -> here you will find a list of dates where the Lab has been used for sessions -> choose the date you wish to export data from under the icon for the desired file format.
Create a new Lab and choose “upload a presentation from your computer”, either by dragging and dropping the file or by opening the file explorer.
If you want to upload a presentation into a Lab you have already created, open the Lab in editing mode and go to general settings, from there select upload presentation.
The file must be in either .ppt or .pptx format. Most presentation programs support exporting to those formats. Note! Colab does not support animations in imported files.
