Abstract

Sars-Cov-19 was officially declared a pandemic by WHO. This causes the implementation of education in Indonesia to be carried out in a manner that includes universities. One of the improvements in competition in the form of food ingredient testing practicum, which is very important for hard skills, is now unable to be carried out properly or even not carried out. Providing a virtual laboratory during the pandemic has become an effective, efficient and economical solution, so the author created the Biochemistry Laboratory as an Online Practicum Game to Revitalize Online Practicum in the Pandemic Era. B-Lab was developed using the R&D method which consists of the determination, design, development and deployment stages. B-Lab uses a student-centered learning approach that presents a sequence of representations at the symbolic level in the form of reaction equations, at the macro level in the form of changes in the form or color of materials before and after the reaction using interactive animation design, and at the micro level at the depiction of the reaction process which is conveyed through visualization of molecular movement during reactions. B-Lab excels as a virtual laboratory that provides practical materials, work step modules or flow diagrams, evaluations or pre-tests and post-tests, scientific libraries in the form of general knowledge, discussions after practicums, and connects students and lecturers. B-Lab is a smart virtual laboratory solution that can be utilized by various universities in Indonesia in line with the goal of independent campuses in order to welcome the new normal era.
