Prep-U features:
Personalized Adaptive Quizzing: Prep-U measures a student’s understanding of key topics by matching quiz results against a nationwide database, then generating follow-up quizzes geared to each student’s specific needs.
7,500 + Class-Tested Questions: The high-quality question bank undergoes ongoing analysis and improvement and individual questions are adaptable to any instructor’s need. Questions are referenced to Bloom’s taxonomy levels and are keyed to Life, Eighth Edition.
One-Click Student Assessment Data: Prep-U’s easy-to-access dynamically-generated database offers a clear picture of each student’s strengths and weaknesses-what they get and don’t get-allowing instructors to tailor their lectures accordingly. It also shows instructors how well your students comprehend biological concepts compared to students nationwide.
