The instrument
StudyScope is an online digital microscope built for science teachers. Access a full catalog of gigapixel slides, a projector, and guided lessons without the hassle of physical microscopes — now a link away, on any device. StudyScope's capabilities include:
Professionally prepared specimens, scanned at full resolution and catalogued with stain, magnification, and searchable tags.
Pan and zoom from the whole specimen down to single cells, always in focus — tuned to stay smooth on school networks and Chromebooks.
Save the slides you teach with, sort them into folders and collections, and keep planning notes attached to each one.
Group slides into ordered lessons and walk through them with students step by step, with private notes only you can see.
Start a session and students join with a room code. They see the slide and step you are on, and one tap jumps them to exactly your view.
Mark up images that stay anchored to the image at any zoom — students see them appear as you draw
Students join by room code or a shared link, in any browser on any device. Nothing to install, and no student personal data collected.
Measure structures in microns and millimetres, calibrated from each slide's own scanner data, with a true-magnification readout and grid overlays.
The workflow
Four steps from an empty screen to the class exploring images.
Search the catalog by subject, specimen, or tag and open any slide in the deep-zoom viewer.
Group slides into sections, then add a step for each item a student should note or do — plus private notes only you see.
Share slide links for class use or homework, or start a live session — students join instantly from their own devices with a room code.
Students can work independently or follow your view and instructions — draw on the specimen, then jump everyone to your exact view with one tap.
Live lessons
Start a live session and the entire class follows along with you. Draw on the specimen and your markings show up on their screens as you make them. Bring every student to your exact view with one tap. They join in seconds with a room code, from a phone, tablet, or the machine in front of them — no apps, no logins for students, ever.
