Free access to eBooks and digital resources
Pearson is committed to providing support and continuity to learners and educators around the world.
With the current global crisis forcing many HE institutions to experience an unplanned shift in the way that courses are delivered, from on-campus to online, we are offering universities in the UK and Ireland free access to a number of our online resources.
Our digital support can make it easier for your students to continue learning during these unchartered waters.
As well as providing free access to digital version of their textbooks (eBooks), students can also be given access to online homework and assessment resources and an interactive learning platform.
How will an ebook help me and my students?
If you’re using a Pearson text as your core textbook on your course, we’re offering free access to the eBook equivalent until the end of June 2020.
Or, if you aren’t currently using a Pearson text but are in need of a good alternative digital version, then we’re here to help too. We publish titles for a wide range of disciplines.
- Pearson eBooks can be accessed simply and easily online, via a range of eBook platform partners, ensuring your students have key learning material when they need it most and are able to engage with their learning using functionality like highlighting, notes and easy search and find tools.
How can digital homework resources and an interactive learning environment help me and my students?
In addition to digital versions of your chosen textbooks, those of you not already using our digital courseware can support your students further for free for the remainder of this academic year with our Mastering or MyLab resources across STEM, Maths and Business, and to our Revel resources across Business and Psychology.
- MyLab & Mastering is an online homework, tutorial and assessment platform that continually assesses each student’s performance and personalizes learning based on students’ misconceptions and mistakes, providing feedback when students enter incorrect answers and adapting to the unique pace of each student.
- Revel helps students to read and to study better than a traditional textbook, by replacing it with a fully digital experience made up of media, assessments, activities, and author-created text content, backed by scientific teaching and learning design principles.
Additional online tutor support
Our online tutor feedback service, Smarthinking, could also help you give your students round-the-clock support from subject-specific tutors for a range of disciplines – including Business, Maths and Science.
In addition to enabling more opportunities for your students to access subject tutor support, Smarthinking can also help your students get feedback on their written assignments from tutors who are specialists in academic writing.
Please get in touch, if you would like to find out more about how Smarthinking may be able to help you scale your online support to students working remotely.
