Find Your Fit Quiz
McGraw Hill Connect is an award-winning digital learning solution that enables students to attain better grades and allows instructors to improve course management. Connect Accounting provides an adaptive learning tool that help students target what they know and what they don’t know, while end-of-chapter problems provide challenging practice sessions.
Connect for Bioscience Features
Connect provides customizable, interactive, and adaptive resources tailored to the specific challenges and needs of students in Biosciences. Adaptive tools like SmartBook and Prep help them to build foundational knowledge and boost confidence from day one. Meanwhile, interactive resources like Relevancy Modules, Virtual Labs with adaptive pre- and post-lab assessments, and lab videos enhance understanding of lab techniques and critical concepts, helping students apply learning. Finally, with an extensive question bank that you can use for summative and formative assessment, revision and higher-level learning skills, you've got everything you need at your fingertips through Connect.
SmartBook
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.
Testbank
The assessment and reporting tools in Connect are a huge time saver for instructors, with a vast assessment bank containing MCQs, short-answer and essay items and interactive exercises that can be used for ongoing, light-touch assessments as well as for final exams.
Application and practice - Reinforce and embed learning with assignments that prompt higher level Blooms skills.
Continuous assessment - Avoid nasty surprises by keeping track of students’ progress and attainment with frequent, light-touch quizzes.
Exams - The academic integrity features in Connect allow you to run secure online exams, saving you time on printing and marking, and your students the familiarity of format.
Connect Reports
Reports in Connect provide customisable analytics on student progress, learning outcomes, at-risk learners and more, easily integrating with LMS gradebooks. Our Connect reports help you save time and gain better student insights.
A&PR
Interactive and customizable, Anatomy & Physiology Revealed is a dissection tool designed to enhance your course. APR contains all systems covered in Human Anatomy and Anatomy & Physiology courses, such as Tissues, Body Orientation, and Cells and Chemistry. Build customized assignments in APR that draws on content from Anatomy dissections, 3D models, anatomical models, histological images, animations and more.
Virtual Labs
Connect Virtual Labs is a fully online lab solution that can be used as an online lab replacement, preparation, supplement or make-up lab to bridge the gap between lab and lecture. These simulations help a student learn the practical and conceptual skills needed, then check for understanding and provide feedback. With adaptive pre-lab and post-lab assessment available, instructors can customize each assignment.
Prep
Help students thrive in Biology and Microbiology by solidifying important prerequisite knowledge in key areas such as cell biology, chemistry, study skills and maths.
Relevancy Modules
Relevancy modules show the connections between what students are learning and their daily lives - presenting content in context. They help students master key course takeaways and make dry or difficult topics more engaging by relating them to topics students are interested in. Incorporate these modules into the class, as supplemental readings, preparation for class discussions on critical topics, as homework with questions in Connect, or any other way you see fit.
Data and Graphing Interactives
A series of interactive graphs that can be used to help students develop critical thinking skills and improve their ability to interpret data and draw conclusions.
NewsFlash Exercises
Newsflash Exercises use scientific literature to help students learn how to interpret it effectively. Exercises link out to an interesting articles or videos and include post assessment questions. The result? Students become more scientifically literate and more discerning consumers of scientific information.
BioNow Video Activities
BioNow Video Activities pair short video clips with concept check questions. Topics include genetics, evolution and biodiversity. Tied to the content of a typical biology course, they help students see the relevance of science, how it applies in real life and for a purpose. Each clip relates the concepts to something students already know about, making it accessible. Use as an intro to or review of a topic to get students asking questions.
