Revel™

Since implementing Revel, my classes have become alive. It's not me standing up and lecturing, it's become interactive. The students are involved in the conversation. As it is now, you get other students giving their ideas and their thoughts and their opinions. And that's what learning is about.

What I really like about Revel is that the information is in short excerpts and you're able to better understand as you go along through the chapter, and at the very end you have a little quiz after. You're not, kinda losing that information as you go along throughout the chapter.

Anything that is going to improve student learning makes you an effective instructor. The students read more, they understand more, and they have a better understanding when they come to class. So it allows me to elaborate on things, it allows me to get them involved in discussion, and I think that's made me a better instructor because I know their foundation when they get to class. Before, there was no foundation, because they wouldn't read.

The feature I like most about Revel is probably the audio book where it reads out loud to you because I can just do anything. Like, I could be washing dishes or folding clothes and it would just be reading to me everything and so it actually helps me read the book, whereas a textbook I probably wouldn't actually read everything.

[Karl Clark]
It's easy for their use—everything's in one place, I can take my notes, I can put it in the digital book, it's right there in front of them, the videos are in front of them, they read a little bit, they take an interactive map, or they take a quiz. So it makes their life a lot easier, they don't have to chase things. We don't even—as instructors, or people, we don't want to chase information, we want it to be provided to us in one easy spot, and that's what Revel does for us.

Revel is better than a traditional textbook because you actually can have it on your laptop, your phone, you can take it anywhere.

[Keina Webb] 
Revel is a good value, everything is all in one place, and I can use it anytime that I want to.

[Evelina Gonzalez] 
To me, Revel is better than an actual text book in that it's more affordable, and it's different, portable, and easy to use.
