Case Study: Fontys University of Applied Sciences bridges theory and practice with Labster virtual labs

Fontys University of Applied Sciences uses Labster to prepare 140 biology students for in-person labs

Fontys University of Applied Sciences, a large Dutch university, sought a solution to bridge the gap between theoretical lessons and practical, in-person lab work for its biology students. The institution turned to Labster's virtual lab simulations to address this challenge.

By implementing Labster, the university created a blended learning approach where students use the simulations to visualize abstract concepts like PCR after theory lessons and before entering the physical lab. This solution resulted in students feeling more prepared and engaged. The vendor's product provided clear, tangible explanations that made complex topics easier to understand, which was highly valued by both instructors and students.
