eLab is an intuitive, affordable, web-based platform for automated, hands-on testing and extended learning, offering the most realistic interface and simulations available.

With eLab, you spend less time on course management and more time teaching -- and students are more engaged, get automated and instant feedback, and enjoy improved retention and outcomes.

With eLab, you can easily:

Engage every student in multiple ways. Extended learning tools combine reading, watching, and hands-on activities to engage learners in multiple ways. Resources include video tutorials for every major topic in every lesson, and highly realistic web simulations that engage students and reinforce learning. All learning resources are clearly referenced with the applicable lessons in the textbook, providing a clear map for the student to follow.

Accurately assess your students knowledge and skills. eLab offers the most realistic simulation environment available today, enabling students to clearly demonstate their understanding of the application. Once the student has completed the assessment, instructors can view test reports that provide a full record of results, including a step-by-step, keystroke-by-keystroke recording of each task. eLab also provides a recording of all the pathways to correctly perform the task. Instructors can determine how and when student view the playback of their answer and the correct pathways to completion.

Track, grade, and manage student and class performance. eLab is built on a robust learning management system, so you can fully manage all aspects of your course. When students register for class, their names are automatically added to a fully functional gradebook. Every assignment and test result is captured and recorded. Grades can be viewed, analyzed, shared with students, and exported to other systems. Reports enable educators to assess both class and individual student performance, and make course corrections if needed.

Reach every student, every day. Our communciations module helps you connect with your students. Receive alerts when students register, submit assignments or complete exams. Send announcements to the entire class, or an email to a student. All communications can be saved as a permanent part of the course record.

And eLab makes it easy:

Web-hosted, high performance platform. No need for installation or maintenance, easy integration with leading LMS platforms, and it comes with live, no-cost technical support.

Minimal setup and training. A highly intuitive interface enables instructors and students to master the platform with little or no training. Look for our "Course-in-a-Box" option, available for many of our Office 2010 titles. These are completely pre-populated eLab courses, so you don't have any setup effort.

Three types of eLab courses are available depending on which textbook is used for the course. Selections include Course-in-a-Box, Custom Course, and Build Your Own.
