Overview
McGraw-Hill Connect is a digital teaching and learning environment with a fully interactive eBook that saves students and instructors time while improving performance over a variety of critical outcomes. Connect offers rich content, abundant assignment types, and flexible policy options along with powerful study tools that adapt to individual student understanding and need. Connect can generate a number of powerful reports that let you quickly review the performance of an individual student or an entire class. ALEKS Assessment and Learning in Knowledge Spaces is a Web-based, artificially intelligent assessment and learning system. ALEKS uses adaptive questioning to quickly and accurately determine exactly what a student knows and doesn't know in a course. ALEKS then instructs the student on the topics she is most ready to learn. As a student works through a course, ALEKS periodically reassesses the student to ensure that topics learned are also retained. ALEKS courses are very complete in their topic coverage and ALEKS avoids multiple-choice questions. A student who shows a high level of mastery of an ALEKS course will be successful in the actual course she is taking.
