Encourage data analysis using integrated statistical software
StatCrunch
StatCrunch® is powerful, web-based statistical software that allows users to collect, crunch, and communicate with data. The vibrant online community offers tens of thousands of shared data sets for students and instructors to analyze, in addition to all of the data sets in the text or online homework. StatCrunch is integrated directly into MyLab Statistics or it can be purchased separately.
StatCrunch Projects in MyLab Statistics provide opportunities for students to practice statistical thinking by analyzing data sets in StatCrunch and answering corresponding questions for immediate feedback. Assignable StatCrunch Projects span the entire curriculum, or can be assigned individually to focus on certain key concepts.
For those using other statistical software programs, MyLab Statistics makes learning and using a variety of software programs as seamless and intuitive as possible. Download data sets from the text and MyLab Statistics exercises directly into Excel®; Excel Projects let instructors seamlessly integrate Excel into their courses without having to manually grade spreadsheets.
Students can also access instructional support tools including tutorial videos, study cards, and manuals for a variety of statistical software programs including StatCrunch, Excel, Minitab, JMP, R, SPSS, and TI 83/84 calculators.
Promote conceptual understanding
Successful students have the ability to apply their knowledge to new situations and contexts. Making connections with statistical concepts helps students internalize difficult ideas needed for success in current and future courses. Assignable questions in MyLab also encourage student discussion.
- The Conceptual Question Library offers over 1,000 conceptual-based questions to help students internalize concepts, make interpretations, and think critically about statistics.
For Business Statistics:
- Twenty-four StatTalk Videos, hosted by fun-loving statistician Andrew Vickers, demonstrate important statistical concepts through interesting stories and real-life events. Videos include assessment questions and an instructor’s guide.
- Business Insight Videos show how managers at top companies use statistics in their everyday work.
Empower each student with personalized learning tools
Each student learns at a different pace. Personalized learning pinpoints the precise areas your students need to practice, giving every student the support they need — when and where they need it — to be successful.
- Set pre- or post-assignments that help students practice just the concepts they need to master. With Personalized Homework, students take a quiz or test and receive a subsequent homework that is personalized based on their performance.
- With Companion Study Plan Assignments, you can assign the Study Plan for practice as a prerequisite to a test or quiz.
- With Learning Catalytics, you’ll hear from every student when it matters most. You pose a variety of questions that help students recall ideas, apply concepts, and develop critical-thinking skills. Your students respond using their own smartphones, tablets, or laptops. You can monitor responses with real-time analytics and find out what your students do — and don’t — understand. Then, you can adjust your teaching accordingly, and even facilitate peer-to-peer learning, helping students stay motivated and engaged.
Better understand student performance
MyLab Statistics gives instructors a comprehensive gradebook with enhanced reporting functionality that makes it easier for instructors to understand which students are struggling, and which topics they struggle with most.
Performance analytics, accessed through the gradebook, give you the insight you need to make more informed decisions for remediation and instruction.
Early alerts use predictive analytics to identify struggling students as early as possible, even if their assignment scores are not a cause for concern. As always, within MyLab Statistics it is easy for you to engage students directly and provide feedback.
Additional Features
Imagine the impact of first-day access on your course
Offering course content through the Pearson Inclusive Access model can help students achieve more by providing affordable, high-quality digital course materials on or before the first day of class. Because all students have access by day one, faculty can start teaching and students can start learning. Learn more about Inclusive Access.
Extend learning beyond the classroom
Pearson eText is an easy-to-use digital textbook. It lets students customize how they study and learn with enhanced search and the ability to create flashcards, highlight, and add notes all in one place. The mobile app lets students learn wherever life takes them, offline or online.
Easily scalable and shareable content
MyLab Math lets you manage multiple class sections, and other instructors can copy your settings so a standardized syllabus can be maintained across your department. If you've spent time customizing your MyLab Math course and want to use the same course next semester, you can copy your existing course, preserve all your customizations, and share with other instructors.
Custom Exercise Builder
The MyLab Custom Question Builder (CQB) within MyLab Math lets you create static and algorithmic online exercises for a wide variety of mathematical and statistical topics. A library of sample exercises provides an easy starting point for creating questions, and you can also create questions from scratch or edit questions from your course's online test bank.
