Staffordshire University's Success with Smart Lock
Kay Tilbury
In the fast-paced world of higher education, institutions constantly seek innovative ways to enhance the learning experience for their students. Staffordshire University, nestled in the heart of Stoke-On-Trent, stands out as a beacon of innovation and progress.
With a commitment to staying at the forefront of technology, Staffordshire University has seamlessly integrated LapSafe®’s Diplomat™ Pro Smart Lockers into its infrastructure, revolutionising the way students access and use digital resources.
The university's dedication to providing innovative technology to its students has been a driving force behind its collaboration with LapSafe®.
In recent years, the university has experienced significant growth, with the launch of Staffordshire University London and the development of the state-of-the-art Catalyst Building. With this growth came the challenge of meeting the increasing demand for digital resources while maintaining a flexible learning environment.
Back in 2016, Staffordshire University took its first step towards addressing this challenge by implementing our Diplomat™ Pro Smart Lockers.
As the landscape of digital learning evolved, so did the university's approach. The Diplomat™ Smart Lockers were upgraded to accommodate high-spec laptops, catering to the diverse needs of students.
This flexibility allowed the university to embrace a ‘Bring Your Own Device’ (BYOD) strategy, fostering an open learning environment.
By increasing the number of lockers available, the university ensures that each student has access to the technology they need, enhancing their learning experience and productivity, and helping to bridge the digital divide. These Smart Lockers have also optimised space utilisation, eliminating the need for bulky desktop workstations, and creating a more dynamic learning environment.
Looking ahead, Staffordshire University remains committed to further enhancing its digital infrastructure. Plans to expand the Smart Locker Solutions and introduce other equipment such as gaming laptops and engineering software underscore the university's dedication to innovation and student success.
As Staffordshire University continues its journey towards academic excellence, LapSafe® stands as a testament to the power of innovation in education. By leveraging innovative technology, the university remains poised to empower its students.
