Case Study: North County Career Center engages students and builds lab confidence with Labster

North County Career Center - Customer Case Study

The customer, North County Career Center, a rural career and technical education high school, faced the challenge of adapting its hands-on animal science and life sciences curriculum for remote learning during the pandemic. Educator Emily Dehoff needed an engaging way to teach practical lab skills like blood smears and urinalysis to students who were tired of traditional video lectures and worksheets.

The vendor, Labster, provided its virtual lab simulation platform. The solution was immediately engaging for students, with its game-like environment motivating them to complete their work. The results showed that students were not only more engaged with Labster than with other teaching methods, but they also entered the physical classroom with greater confidence and a stronger understanding of the lab procedures, having already practiced them virtually.
