Abstract. In educational and research laboratories, where experiential learning is essential, the integration of viable teaching methods is necessary to keep up with the evolving world. This study outlines the design and integration of digital tools tailored for the Pharmacognosy laboratory at Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski.” Using the ADDIE framework, resources including interactive laboratory report forms, a digital glossary, photographic repositories, NFC tag-enabled access points to curated online sources, and 3D models were chosen, created and integrated within the Moodle e-learning platform. A survey of students revealed positive perceptions towards these resources, with the interactive report forms rated highest for usability and impact. Although 3D models generated considerable interest, their quality concerns highlighted the need for refinement. The findings suggest that low-barrier, cost-effective tools offering direct educational support yield the greatest benefit. Overall, digital transformation in laboratory education demonstrates clear potential to enhance accessibility, efficiency, and engagement.
