Dr. Alex Holmes, Lecturer in Pharmacology at the University of Leeds, faced common challenges in group work: unbalanced teams, disengagement, and the time burden of manual team setup. By implementing unihelper.io, she transformed her second-year module:
Balanced Groups: Students were matched using competency profiles that reflected skills, working styles, and preferences.
Improved Engagement: Attendance and participation stayed consistently high.
Positive Feedback: Students described it as their best group experience to date.
Time Savings: Dr. Holmes saved hours of administrative work and avoided conflict meetings altogether.
Encouraged by these results, she now plans to expand Unihelper to additional modules and recommends it to colleagues.
