REACTOR Introduces New Online Graphing Utility

Students no longer will need to use a separate excel spreadsheet or hand in any extraneous papers when creating and submitting their lab reports. REACTOR's new graphing tool provides an easy to use interface that allows students to create sophisticated and accurate graphs and save them to their Lab Reports.

Whether creating a pH curve or calculating the ratio of molecular weight to mass in different gases, students will now find the creation and submission of graphs a simple task while teachers have the convenience of the classic Late Nite Labs lab report and their students graphs all in one.

REACTOR is now fully compatible with the Blackboard Online Learning Management System

Late Nite Labs has just teamed up with Blackboard.com to provide a seamless integration so your students and faculty can login directly from their Blackboard account into REACTORs labs. Students can now submit lab reports to their instructors Blackboard grade book for grading and feedback. Integration with other Course Management systems is under way!

Late Nite Labs gets a new look!

As you've noticed, we have redesigned our website with both student and teacher in mind with a more user friendly interface and updated content. These changes should make browsing and learning about REACTOR simple and intutive. Please let us know what you think.

Late Nite Labs introduces REACTOR Pre-Lab product

Late Nite Labs is proud to introduce the first of its kind: A Web-based Pre Lab simulation designed to give students an innovative chemistry learning tool, providing hands on preparation for the standard wet lab. An EXCITING approach to lab preparation, students are offered a new perspective on chemistry concepts and lab techniques. REACTOR Pre Labs makes the student familiar with procedures, labware, glassware and chemicals to minimize mistakes in the wet lab and make the learning experience there more meaningful.
With REACTOR Pre -Labs We guarantee a more prepared, engaged and knowledgeable chemistry student. Call us today to learn how REACTOR fits into your curriculum!


Over 5000 students registered for Fall 2005 to date

This fall semester of 2005 over 5000 new students will be using REACTOR chemistry simulations as the full laboratory component of an online course, pre-labs, or extra credit supplemental labs to a traditional course.

In order to prepare for this demand, Late Nite Labs has added 4 new servers with the capacity to accommodate over 10,000 students.


Student Credit Card Payment System Online

It’s never been easier for students to purchase access for their Late Nite Labs course, 24/7! As always, Late Nite Labs is available during business hours at 1-800 275-6218 but for those “late nite” workers just click on New User Registration on our homepage and get started today!


Subscripts and superscripts now available

As always, the REACTOR lab experience promises to be true to life and with the hard work of our programmers and engineers, we are happy to announce that all compounds and chemicals appearing on the Lab Manual are now properly formatted with the appropriate subscripts and superscripts!


REACTOR Offers Multi-Language Support

Late Nite Labs is pleased to announce that a language localization program is now available for the REACTOR chemistry simulation product. The program collects all of the texts in the REACTOR application as well as the database of chemical compounds and reactions in a number of files that can be translated and reinserted to provide complete localization of the product. The lab activities are available in Word document format for translation, and they can then be easily inserted into the application via REACTOR's Lab Builder utility.

A Spanish version, QuimiLab, has already been completed, and REACTOR is now being sold in Spain and South America. We look forward to working with other school systems and distributors around the world to bring REACTOR into the classroom.


Textbook Tie-In

Late Nite Labs has signed a textbook deal with J. Wiley & Sons, Inc., a leading publisher of science textbooks. Access to our chemistry lab simulations has been bundled with 8,000 copies of “The Extraordinary Chemistry of Ordinary Things”, an introductory college text for students with no prior background in science. Wiley has identified a group of liberal arts colleges teaching chemistry without a lab, for which our simulations provide a suitable alternative


Habla Español?

Late Nite Labs has signed a distribution agreement with ITP Software Group Ltd., an Israel-based reseller of educational software to Latin America with a network of 35 offices across the continent. ITP has taken upon itself the expense of translating the software and laboratory activities into Spanish. REACTOR has been sold to a number of High Schools and Colleges, and a Portuguese version is planned for Brazil.


Comprehensive Library of Labs

Late Nite Labs announces the availability of a set of 50 ready-to-run laboratory activities suitable for both college and high school general chemistry students. The labs are arranged by topics following the general chemistry curriculum, and include stoichiometry, thermochemistry and acid/base equilibrium. The labs are available to all registered teachers, to be used as is or edited individually to meet specific teaching needs.
