What is Lt?
Used by 100,000+ students at 400+ institutions worldwide, Lt is an online learning platform that engages students with real data, inside and outside the lab.
Lt is the only cloud-based learning platform for data acquisition. Students can record and analyze their own physiological signals using Lt Sensors or PowerLab (on MacOS or Windows) for a truly hands-on learning experience. Sampling panels in Lt can record pulse, ECG, respiratory rate, blood pressure, and more.
Choose from over 900 ready-to-use, interactive, and fully-customizable lessons for life science, nursing, and medicine.
Lessons in Lt include pre-recorded example data that can be switched on automatically when teaching remotely, or in situations where data recording isn’t available.
Create, customize and deliver your own interactive content that students can access anywhere. Lt’s cloud-based platform means students can learn on almost any device that connects to the internet. Whether they use iOS or Android, tablet, mobile, or laptop, lessons will be resized to suit.
Building media-rich lessons is simple. Drag and drop a wide range of content types to create interactive lessons, featuring multiple-choice questions, short-form written answers, video, audio, digital histology, image annotation, and more.

Kaushik Dutta
Teaching Professor
Used Lt weekly for 5 years+
Feb 2024
It's super easy to use out of the box but certain deep dives require work-arounds; there is a learning curve to Lt in terms of use, edits and customization; certain bulk edit features are not available.
Kaushik Dutta found Lt:
- Moderately reduces teacher workload“Certain repeat content just needs editing”
- Significantly improves teaching efficiency“Because of recording capability it makes it easy to mix content and teach with hands-on examples”
- Slightly improves attainment“some student do make the connection”
- Slightly builds student knowledge“when students are engaged and attentive it has the potential for a significant gain”

It's a very easy to use, effective, accessible and engaging platform that everyone can use to enhance their teaching.
Dawn Collins found Lt:
- Moderately reduces teacher workload“Using the lab packages and Understanding your Physiology to help develop workbooks”
- Moderately improves teaching efficiency“Using ready made material enables speed of creation of teaching materials”
- Moderately improves attainment“Multiple ways of presenting material and hands on practical sessions aid engagement and understanding.”
- Significantly builds student knowledge“We use Lt as it's a great interactive way to deliver material, for both new learning and consolidation. One third of the UG HMS course is technology enhanced learning sessions, with Lt playing the key role.”

It's changed how I teach labs. I can spend more time in development and engagement than building learning platforms.
John Zubek found Lt:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“Many of the activities and lessons were written by people who actually understand not only the traditional physiology approach to learning but also the clinical correlates. This makes the connections so much clearer and more practical for students.”
- Significantly improves teaching efficiency“The ease of using the platform for learning as well as assessment makes everything run so much more smoothly.”
- Moderately improves attainment“I think we are achieving most if not all of our course goals.”
- Significantly builds student knowledge“There is ample built in review items for students to refresh their prior knowledge. Students are demonstrating competence not only with content knowledge but also technical skills.”

Retired University Nurse Lecturer
Used Lt weekly for 5 years+

I have used many programmes over my years in nursing but this platform suited the school of nursing as it contained almost everything we needed to teach nurses conditions and the patient as a whole plus the opportunity to edit our existing lessons into Lt. As administrators and lecturers we could tailor the lessons/modules to our curriculum. It also allowed us to present assessments in a more varied way to the students rather than platforms such as Blackboard / Moodle. I also developed lessons in conjunction with our clinical simulation delivery. In Scotland, Kt users from a variety of different schools collaborate together with common goals I also gave the advantage that most customers don’t that I visited and worked with the teams at ADI 77 Vogel St and was iniressec by their ethos and approach to their goals and always striving to serve their users. Thank you
Tony Wales found Lt:
- Moderately reduces teacher workload“Previous .ppt presentations were converted into Lt with student participation”
- Significantly improves teaching efficiency“Interactive rather than presentation in lecture theatre. Pre work prior to clinical skills sessions. Use of ‘real’ patients whereas before ‘made-up’ scenarios. I could add many more examples”
- Moderately improves attainment“Students working through lessons working to towards a comprehensive understanding of a condition. Lessons were tweaked for the different year groups to fed knowledge into their grasp of conditions”
- Significantly builds student knowledge“We know from written feedback, short surveys and verbal feedback of student groups Lt was welcomed by the majority of students after its initial introduction as third year students had not been involved before whereas first year student were given their licences in the first month”

Lt is a modern teaching and learning platform and user-friendly for educators and students.
Dr Edward Narayan found Lt:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“In-built lessons mean we do not need to start from scratch.”
- Significantly improves teaching efficiency“Pre-labs are great memory joggers.”
- Significantly improves attainment“I received Faculty of Science Leadership and Mentoring Award in 2021 through part of which I demonstrated the effectiveness of Lt technology for teaching.”
- Significantly builds student knowledge“Connects theory and complex concepts made easier to study.”

Wendy Riggs
Associate Professor of Biology
Used Lt monthly for 1-2 years
Oct 2023
I love it. But like any tech tool, it can be tricky to get up and running. There is also a learning curve for students, so it can be rather high maintenance to use. I don't have many colleagues who use it, even though we have all the stuff.
Wendy Riggs found Lt:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“I can build lab activities, and then reuse them semester by semester.”
- Moderately improves teaching efficiency“Edits/improvements I make to the activities impact all students moving forward. As I figure out better ways to do something, I can add a note about that into the LT activity. Super efficient!”
- Slightly improves attainment“I'm assuming attainment means student retention (they stay in the class)? I don't think it has much of an impact, but LT does make me feel like I can offer MUCH more robust lab experiences for my online students.”
- Significantly builds student knowledge“The activities are varied and can give students lots of opportunities to practice what they are learning. I love that!”
