Case Study

At Vocareum, we are committed to empowering educators with tools that simplify teaching and enhance student learning experiences. Google Colab has become a go-to platform for instructors teaching AI, data science, and programming, offering a free, cloud-based Jupyter notebook environment. With built-in access to GPUs and TPUs at no cost, Colab enables students to run computationally intensive models without requiring specialized hardware. Today, we are excited to announce our collaboration with Google Colab, bringing seamless autograding and Learning Management System (LMS) integration to instructors who use Colab for notebook-based assignments.

Responding to Educators’ Needs​

More than half of Colab’s user base comes from academia, and one of the most frequent requests from instructors has been for autograding and LMS integration. Through our partnership with Google Colab, we are addressing this need, offering an easy-to-use solution that reduces grading time, streamlines workflows, and enables real-time student feedback.
