Case Study: Singapore Polytechnic boosts student engagement and learning with Labster

Singapore Polytechnic - Customer Case Study

Singapore Polytechnic sought a solution to challenges involving high equipment costs, safety concerns, and limited student hands-on time with complex scientific instruments like confocal microscopes. To enhance engagement and self-directed learning in its Biomedical Sciences and Biotechnology courses, the institution turned to vendor Labster for its virtual lab simulations.

Labster provided desktop and VR simulations that allowed students to practice procedures in a risk-free, repeatable environment. This solution led to a measurable improvement, with student examination scores increasing by approximately one to two grades. The interactive and gamified nature of the Labster platform boosted student motivation and knowledge retention, successfully addressing the institution's initial challenges.
