A Labster Case Study
Improving Student Access to Science Education with Virtual Labs
EDUKAN, a consortium of community colleges in Kansas, was using outdated virtual lab products for its online biology courses, which presented challenges with obsolete content and technology. Jennifer Pfortmiller, a science instructor, sought a modern solution to improve student access to high-quality lab experiences.
Labster provided its virtual labs, which were seamlessly integrated into the EDUKAN Canvas LMS. The solution led to improved student engagement and lab scores, with students reporting that the labs made learning exciting. For the instructor, Labster eliminated tech support issues, saved grading time, and provided an easy-to-use platform. The success of the implementation has solidified Labster's place in the curriculum for the foreseeable future.
