Case Study: University of Portsmouth boosts biomedical science learning with Labster

University of Portsmouth - Customer Case Study

The University of Portsmouth, facing the challenge of expanding its Biomedical Sciences program with a new distance-learning degree apprenticeship, needed professional materials for this updated course format. Gavin Knight, the course leader, sought a solution that could deliver immersive, engaging lab experiences online and turned to Labster's virtual lab simulations.

By implementing Labster, the university integrated the simulations directly into its Moodle LMS and made them a core part of the assessment strategy. This solution led to 100% student engagement from the first-year cohort. Labster allowed the university to future-proof its course, consolidate teaching with a wide range of simulations, and even replace some existing practicals for distance learners, successfully supporting the expansion of its program.
