Abstract

Real experiments can be demonstrated to students through virtual labs, which will greatly facilitate their learning. Virtual labs allow students to conduct experiments independently, offering the ability to integrate theoretical and practical aspects. This study conducted a systematic literature review on virtual labs in science education over the past five years. In addition, this study used multiple research designs, and the review was based on the publication standard, PRISMA Statement (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses). The articles were selected using Scopus, a leading database, and Google Scholar, a supporting database. This review features two main themes based on the thematic analysis, namely (1) educational settings practicing virtual labs in Science Education and (2) learning outcomes measured by implementation of virtual labs. Seven sub-themes have emerged from the two main themes. The findings revealed (1) the potential of virtual labs to improve the teaching and learning process, (2) the utilization of an effective virtual lab for scientific learning, and (3) the adoption of virtual labs will enhance students' competencies in practical experiences and improve learning outcomes in science education.
