Case Study: San Jose State University boosts chemistry grades and student confidence with Labster

San Jose State University boosts final exam grades 16% with Labster

San Jose State University faced a challenge when the Covid-19 pandemic prevented its large Introductory Chemistry course from holding in-person labs. The university turned to Labster's virtual lab simulations to continue delivering essential lab instruction to its 400+ students.

Labster provided a flexible and engaging digital solution that allowed students to learn and practice lab techniques. The implementation resulted in a significant measurable impact: average final exam grades improved by over 16%, rising from a D+ to a B-, and course grades also increased. Furthermore, student surveys conducted by Labster showed high levels of confidence, with 85% of students feeling prepared to apply their lab safety learning in a physical environment.
