lab sessions
Hands-on science periods
Lab sessions are scheduled periods for hands-on practical work, typically in science courses where students apply concepts from lectures through experiments, dissections, or technical procedures.
The term extends to any structured time for applied practice: The coding bootcamp included weekly lab sessions.
Usually shorter than a full class period and often supervised by teaching assistants rather than professors.
