Main Description
Adaptive Learning System. LearnSmart is an unparalleled, intelligent learning system based on cognitive mapping that diagnoses your students’ knowledge of a particular subject and then creates an individualized learning path geared toward student success in your course. It offers individualized assessment by delivering appropriate learning material in the form of questions at the right time, helping students attain mastery of the content. Whether the system is assigned by you or used independently by students as a study tool, the results can be recorded in an easy-to-use grade report that allows you to measure student progress at all times and coach your students to success. As an added benefit, all content covered in this adaptive learning system is tied to learning objectives for your course so that you can use the results as evidence of subject mastery. This system also provides a personal study plan that allows the student to estimate the time it will take and number of questions required to learn the subject matter. Your students will learn faster, study more efficiently, and retain more knowledge when using A Topical Approach to Lifespan Development.
