Online higher education
Practice labs for online universities and distance education
Online degrees often rely on passive video, PDF and multiple-choice tests, which leaves students without workplace confidence. Teachrity adds three LTI-launched labs inside the LMS: Subject Practice, JD Placement Pathway and Business Practice, giving remote learners spoken practice and employers visible evidence.

The online credential problem
Drop-offs rise and employers doubt online credentials when courses never ask students to speak or decide. Interactive practice raises the value of the same degree.
Three labs
Subject Practice Lab for discipline scenarios, JD Placement Pathway for interviews and GDs, and Business Practice Lab for first-day workplace tasks.
Admissions and outcomes
A visible practice component helps programmes show prospective students what they will be able to do, and helps placement teams show employers readiness.
Course creation
Course teams can create AI-assisted course videos and simulations for distance-education delivery and reuse them across batches.
Evidence for programme reviews
Each lab attempt leaves a rubric record that programme heads can use in internal quality reviews and share with employers, without asking faculty to record and mark hours of oral work by hand.

AI Simulation & Practice Lab Platform for Online Universities
An online student situated remotely logs in to complete a credit-bearing simulation. They must negotiate a cross-border contract dispute with an AI business stakeholder who objects to delivery delays and threatens penalty clauses.
