Adaptive Learning
Not every student learns the same way and at the same rate. And now, thanks to advances in adaptive learning technology, you no longer have to teach as if they do.
A way to enable personalised learning at scale
MyLab & Mastering with Adaptive Learning assesses student performance and activity in real time and, using data and analytics, personalises content to reinforce concepts that target each student’s strengths and weaknesses.
Dynamic Study Modules
Help each student learn through personalised study
Help students study effectively on their own by continuously assessing their activity and performance in real time. Here's how it works:
- Students complete a set of questions with a unique answer format that also asks them to indicate their confidence level
- Questions repeat until the student can answer them all correctly and confidently
- Once completed, Dynamic Study Modules explain the concept using materials from the text. These are available as graded assignments prior to class, and accessible on smartphones, tablets, and computers.
Adaptive Follow-Ups
Continuously adapts learning to each student
Adaptive Follow-Up Assignments are based on each student's past performance on their course work to date, including homework, tests, and quizzes. These provide additional coaching and targeted practice as needed, so students can master the material.
The following MyLab & Mastering products feature Adaptive Learning:
