SaplingPlus Feedback

Targeted feedback tailored to individual student responses

With content written by leading subject-matter experts, SaplingPlus homework provides real-time feedback based on specific misconceptions of the problems at hand. Regardless of a student's initial response, SaplingPlus ensures everyone arrives at the correct answer for the right reasons.

Assignments, due dates, and question weights are all customizable to educators' preferences, and the SaplingPlus platform supplies metrics related to attempts taken, time spent on each question, and more—offering immediate insight into class and individual student performance.

Student- and educator-preferred adaptive quizzing

LearningCurve*—our most popular digital tool among students and teachers alike—is adaptive, game-like quizzing that challenges students by focusing on the material with which they need the most help. Students move quickly through mastered content, and when they get a question wrong, built-in feedback provides help and links them to relevant course material for review—and then they get a chance to try again. All LearningCurve questions are tied directly to the course e-book to encourage students to utilize the resources at hand.

LearningCurve supplies classroom analytics to educators through three types of reports: an overview of class performance, a snapshot of all student activity scores, and an individual student topic breakdown. Our overview structure makes it simple to identify areas in which more instructional time is needed, and which concepts are already well-retained.
