| Lyryx Interactive Financial Accounting (LIFA) is a Web-based assessment tool that has captured the attention of post-secondary schools across the country. By reflecting the classroom environment, LIFA significantly benefits both instructors and students. Each chapter is broken down into several Lessons; condensed versions of the material in the text. Each Lesson is supported by a self-correcting, algorithmically generated Exploration, which produces a different question each time. Labs are also algorithmically generated and automatically graded for instant feedback. Grades are recorded into a Gradebook meaning less time spent on marking. Recent research has shown that when Labs are tied to assessment, even if they are worth only a small percentage of the total grade for the course, students WILL do their homework—and more than once! For the instructors: The goal of this product is for the instructors to use these labs for course marks instead of creating and marking their own, saving them and teaching assistants valuable time to instead help students directly. After registering their course with us, an instructor can create labs of their choice by selecting problems from out test bank, and set a deadline for each one of these labs. The content, marking and feedback of the problems has been developed and implemented with the help of experienced instructors in business mathematics. Instructors have access to all their students' marks and can view their best labs. At any time, the instructors can download the class grades for their own programs.
