Homework and practice exercises

Homework and practice questions in MyLab Engineering are correlated to the textbook and many regenerate algorithmically to give students unlimited opportunity for practice and mastery. The questions offer helpful feedback when students enter incorrect answers. The questions contain a number of tutorial tools and learning aids that give students the help they need when they need it.

Exercises provide step-by-step instruction, input-specific feedback, hints, videos, links to spreadsheets, sample problems, or the exact spot in the eText that addresses the learning objective of the problem.

Give students hands-on practice with hands-off grading

Auto-graded Excel Projects

Auto-graded Excel Projects in MyLab Engineering allow you to seamlessly integrate Excel content into your course without manually grading spreadsheets.

Students have the opportunity to practice important engineering skills in Microsoft Excel, helping them master key concepts and gain proficiency with Excel. Students simply download a spreadsheet, complete the project in Excel, and then upload that file back into MyLab Engineering, where they receive reports on their work that provide personalized, detailed feedback.

Give every student a voice

Learning Catalytics™

With Learning Catalytics, you’ll hear from every student when it matters most.

You pose a variety of questions that help students recall ideas, apply concepts, and develop critical-thinking skills. Your students respond using their own smartphones, tablets, or laptops.

You can monitor responses with real-time analytics and find out what your students do — and don’t — understand. Then, you can adjust your teaching accordingly, and even facilitate peer-to-peer learning, helping students stay motivated and engaged.

Student Videos

Video lectures and solutions are available to help students understand chapter concepts or to walk them through example exercises. These are available to add to assignments and accessible at all times through the Multimedia Library.

Personalize learning and reinforce key concepts

Personalized Study Plan

The Study Plan helps students monitor their own progress, letting them see exactly which topics they need to practice, at-a-glance. MyLab Engineering generates a personalized Study Plan for each student based on his or her test results, and the Study Plan links directly to interactive, tutorial exercises for topics the student hasn't yet mastered. Students can regenerate these exercises with new values for unlimited practice, and the exercises include guided solutions and multimedia Learning Aids to give students the extra help they need. Instructors can view the students' Study Plans from the gradebook and use the mastery icons to see how they're doing on their own.

Better understand student performance

Data & Analytics

MyLab Engineering gives instructors a comprehensive gradebook with enhanced reporting functionality that makes it easier for instructors to understand which students are struggling, and which topics they struggle with most.

Performance analytics, accessed through the gradebook, give you the insight you need to make more informed decisions for remediation and instruction.

Now available!
Early Alerts use predictive analytics to identify struggling students as early as possible — even if their assignment scores are not a cause for concern. As always, it is easy for you to engage students directly within MyLab Engineering and provide feedback.

Additional Features

A powerful homework and test manager

A powerful homework and test manager lets you create, import, and manage online homework assignments, quizzes, and tests that are automatically graded. You can choose from a wide range of assignment options, including time limits, proctoring, and maximum number of attempts allowed. The bottom line: MyLab means less time grading and more time teaching.
