Reviews

Students like learning at their own pace; they can go as fast or as slow as they need. MyFoundationsLab facilitates this structure; it's more driven by mastery learning, not by what the teacher says a student should be doing. I compared a lot of products that were out there and the biggest reason I wanted to use MyFoundationsLab(TM) is that it was very easy to customize. --Jennifer McLearen, Instructor, Piedmont Virginia Community College (VA) MyFoundationsLab gives students the confidence in order to be successful in their next classes.--Ann Voorheis, Instructor, Baker College Online. For instructors, MyFoundationsLab makes life a lot easier. --Connie Johnson, Instructor, American Intercontinental University
