LJ Create Smart Labs

Innovative Learning Spaces

LJ Create produces innovative learning spaces for a wide range of education and occupational disciplines. We call these spaces Smart Labs. We combine and customize Smart Labs to meet each customer's specific needs.

Every Smart Lab includes:

Innovative Hardware
- Industrial, hands-on activities
- Design, prototyping & modelling kits
- Desktop fault-finding trainers
Online LMS and lesson libraries
- 10,000 digital lessons
- Guide and track students
- Curriculum aligned to academic and vocational standards
Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
- Ongoing suppot from our instructors
- Training and professional development

LJ Create Smart Labs are designed to create:

Skills

Active learning lessons and projects develop cognitive and manipulative skills.
Student-centered learning develops responsibility and lifelong learning skills.
Our large library of lessons integrates science, math, language, engineering, and occupational learning.

Motivation

Students love the active learning approach and the student-centered environment.
Smart labs free the teacher from the front of the room, allowing them to focus on helping each student achieve their potential.
The high-tech smart labs provide an inspiring environment and a source of pride for any institution.

Adaptability

The nature of Smart Labs means that staff transitions and temporary substitutions can occur with minimum disruption.
Our lessons are produced to a consistently high standard to help all staff develop successful outcomes.
Our huge library of courses and learning modules is so large that teachers have plenty of choice for tailoring their lessons.

Results

Smart Labs deliver results. Performance in a lesson is assessed against the learning objectives and courses have pre- and post- testing to gauge progress.
The Learning Management System tracks and reports performance, providing teachers and administrative staff with the tools to react when appropriate.Learning modules are supported by supplementary support lessons that students can call upon when required.
This in‑context academic intervention is an outstanding tool for developing math, science, and language skills.

Time

Our preconfigured lessons cut down on preparation time.
With most students in a class occupying themselves in the smart labs, teachers can focus on the advanced or struggling students that will benefit from close attention.
Smart labs are ready to run and easy to use.
Staff don’t need to find the extra time normally needed to configure experiments or project work.
