Active-Class – an integrated eLearning platform

Active-Class (link) is the only integrated platform containing both a learning management system (LMS) and an exam monitoring system (EMS) that keeps both teachers and students in mind. It is an all-in-one integrated eLearning platform that is here to help students and teachers alike, as well as admins, parents and guardians. This integration enables Active-Class to be greater than the sum of its parts. For one, students need only to get accustomed to one system for term-time learning and their exams; exams are already stressful, meaning every small bit of help goes a long way.

Learning management system (LMS; link)

Active-Class LMS is a learning management system that accelerates learning by providing topic level feedback into individual students’ progress, highlighting areas of difficulty and equipping teachers with the insight needed on where to direct their efforts. Students get complete transparency over the activities they need to complete, by which deadline, grouped by module and classes, and concisely displayed in their calendar. Moreover, it comes free when purchased with Active-Class EMS.

Exam monitoring system (EMS; link)

Active-Class EMS is an online-exam administering tool that uses state-of-the-art proprietary AI to provide superior identification and proctoring services, without the intrusion of third-party surveillance. It brings credibility to exam accreditation critical for professional courses wanting to provide commensurate reassurance to online exams. By doing away with human surveillance, it minimises anxiety in the examinee further reducing additional costs, compared with in-person exams. It also integrates seamlessly with existing learning management systems such as Moodle, Blackboard and so on.
