Case Study: The University of Manchester Boosts Student Performance with DigitalEd Möbius

Student Performance Increased When Courses Moved Online

The University of Manchester needed a flexible assessment tool to support a new distance learning approach and deliver a fully online Master of Science course while maintaining its strong academic standards. DigitalEd’s Möbius platform was chosen to support the assessment and testing component across technical and non-technical courses, including science, engineering, humanities, and arts.

DigitalEd implemented Möbius to turn worksheets into online assignments, support students with symbols and diagrams, and integrate seamlessly with Blackboard. The approach led to increased student performance and engagement, with most students achieving 100% on assignments, while also saving faculty time on marking and helping the university refine online exams through digital proctoring and oral assessments.
