Material Detail

We have deveoped and provide access to an extensive, interactive self-review library covering 26 lecture modules in general astronomy to give students instruction tailored to their rate of learning and mathematical abilities, with personal feedback, as they integrate new knowledge into their existing view of the universe. Students typically complete 1,600 problems over a semester, drawing from an archive of over 12,000 questions presenting both conceptual and mathematically-focused challenges.

A companion instructor analysis tool for reviewing student work archives copies of each exercise completed by every student, including the details of incorrect answers, and reveals trends with topic and time for individuals and groups. Instructors are able to monitor individual and group progress, tracking every facet of student action and the global response to individual topics of study.

Individual accounts are available by request to both students and to intructors and their classes of students.
