Innovation Tools
The university administration aims at pioneering in the field of using innovative tools in education. One of the main effective innovative tools is virtualization of workplace training settings. It aims at developing students’ skills and practice. Utilizing virtualization allow students and teachers to work anywhere on any device, thus improving flexibility and reducing organizational cost.
ASU Virtual microscopy platform
Microscopy, macroscopy, cytology provided by teacher annotations are essential learning guides in scientific and health sciences education. Supported by a list of interactive tools on the platform that enables the student to highly engage while learning.
Histopathological microscopic learning slides and high-resolution medical images are transferred directly to the students’ cell phones or laptops — with all zoom functions as with a real microscope. It offers lecturers the opportunity to upload additional learning materials to the platform: PDFs, images, audio sequences, text or table documents, or teaching videos.
Every student can digitally zoom and move histological slides and other medical images, just like on a real microscope. The cloud-based platform works on all browser-based devices such as Smartphone, Tablet, Laptop, or PC/Mac at any time without any software installation.
Virtual laboratories
Integration the interactive 3D virtual labs simulation applications with the e-learning system for students provide training on the steps of laboratory experiments in a virtual environment, which helps the student to practice the steps in the theoretically correct manner before the application in real labs setting, which in turn will lead to improving the performance of students and reducing the waste of time and resources.

Virtual patient platform
Simulation is an emerging as a new medical educational strategy that allows students to repeat a given scenario as many times as needed, make mistakes, learn, receive proper feedback and finally, improve their clinical reasoning skills required in clinical practice without compromising the safety of patients.
