Each Interactive Assignment guides students through small chunks of text and seamlessly integrated multimedia content, asking students to read a little, watch a little, and do a little, to develop strong conceptual connections. With this thoughtful integration of text, media and assessment, the Trigsted team aims to engage today’s students in learning crucial developmental math concepts. Exercises built into each Interactive Assignment provide just-in-time assessment, asking students to test their understanding after learning concepts, helping them to better retain knowledge.

Cutting-edge course delivery

This new Interactive MyLab™ Math course is a completely digital course solution powered by new Interactive Assignments that encourage students to interact with material in new, dynamic, and engaging ways.

  • Built to be tablet-friendly, Interactive Assignments offer a clean and modern design and are also compatible with PCs and laptops.

  • The flexibility allows for use in a traditional lecture course or a flipped classroom, where instructors can use the Interactive Assignments as pre- or post-class work to better prepare students, freeing up meaningful in-person class time.

  • For computer-lab-based, hybrid, and online courses, instructors use the Interactive Assignments as a prebuilt foundation to help guide students through learning the material.

  • The Guided Notebook and Interactive Assignment Print Reference, available both electronically in the MyLab Math course and in print, round out the full student-learning package.

Read a little, watch a little, do a little 

Each assignment guides students through chunks of text and seamlessly integrated multimedia content, asking students to read a little, watch a little, and do a little, to develop strong conceptual connections.

  • Short reading segments and quick media clips are followed by Concept Check and You Try It exercises. Students’ points are calculated as they progress through the Interactive Assignment, and all results are recorded in the instructor’s gradebook.

  • Concept Media — These quick media lessons typically cover an objective and help students to learn the concepts in a visual way. The authors are experts in creating compelling media and present the material through Concept Animations, Concept Videos, or Concept Video Animations utilizing Green Screen technology.

  • Example Media — Every example within the Interactive Assignment is explained through a compelling media clip. The Example Media utilizes various formats to best illustrate the example, ranging from Videos, Interactive Videos, Application Videos, Animations, and Hybrid Video/Animations.

  • Concept Check Questions — including Video, Animation, and Reading–help assess whether students are learning broader concepts and making connections as they progress through the Interactive Assignment. Many feature the NEW Drag-and-Drop Exercise format, allowing students to really interact with the math.

  • You Try It Questions are traditional skill-and-drill exercises that follow examples and allow students to practice the math they just learned, right as they are learning it, and enable instructors to assess along the way.
