What students say

We get set homework every week. For me the benefit of MyMathLab is actually working through the examples that we've been taught in class. That's how I learn maths.

Llinos Owen, student, Engineering Maths, University of Liverpool, UK (MyMathLab)

I just wanted to let you know how helpful the Mastering Biology is! It makes me study better, almost forces me to it! And it is a perfect combination between pictures, videos and text. It's genius!

Renee Bakkemo, student, University of Essex (MasteringBiology)

It is like having a teacher by your side, you learn it a lot quicker than usual homework!

Jannick Mikkelsen, student, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark (MyEconLab)

[MyFinanceLab is] like a personal tutor laying the path toward your learning finance.

What educators say

"What really helped was that fact that [MasteringEngineering] was online, available 24/7. That really helped; students these days want to decide when they study. That's when we really saw our pass rates go up."

- Gillian Saunders, lecturer, Delft University of Technology, Netherlands, using MasteringEngineering with Hibbeler: Statics (MasteringEngineering)

The average mark is approximately 10% higher than it was previously. Furthermore, the failure rate has decreased significantly - from 32% to 5-14% in recent years.

Marion Birch and Niels Walet, Manchester University (MasteringPhysics)

Since I've been using it my pass rates have gone up - the first year I used the system it was quite striking.

Results show that these students performed on average 10% better on the final exam.
