Examination of allostasis and online laboratory simulations in a middle school science classroom

作者:

Highlights:

• We examine the role of allostatic load on student outcomes in a middle school classroom.

• The use of online laboratory simulations mitigates the effects of allostatic load.

• A holistic view of learning is necessary when using online laboratory simulations.
