At the heart of Connect is the SmartBook,
an adaptive eBook that helps students
study more effectively and offers granular
insight into progress and achievement

SmartBook measures what students know to help them study more effectively and get better grades.

SmartBook gives you, the instructor, the ability to set highly targeted reading assignments and crucially monitor student engagement with these and their resultant level of understanding of key concepts.

More than just a regular eBook, the SmartBook assesses students' mastery of concepts as they go along, guiding them to the areas of the text they most need to absorb and tailoring questions to keep plugging away at the concepts they find most difficult.  

In the SmartBook environment, students develop an understanding of their strengths and weaknesses through meaningful, instant feedback that allows them to review the concepts they have yet to master and self-direct learning and revision.  

Reading

Students read assigned material and are guided by adaptive highlighting that emphasises key topics.

Practice

As they read the material, SmartBook presents questions to help identify what they know and don't know.

Recharge

To ensure mastery and retention, SmartBook directs students to review material they're likely to forget.
