Take a closer look at what Pearson eTextbook has to offer...
Helps students learn tough concepts faster
The interactive resources in Pearson eTextbook take students’ self study to a whole other level. Videos and animations bring concepts to life and aid comprehension, while quizzes help students check their understanding, and Interactive models and graphs help demonstrate and reinforce concepts.* For a range of disciplines, students can also access 6 free video-based resources from Pearson+ Channels before choosing whether to subscribe for full access to the suite of bite-size videos, related practice problems and online support from subject matter experts that the service provides.
Makes any moment a study moment
The read aloud audiobook gives students the flexibility to listen and learn on-the-go, anytime, anywhere and, for many titles, a read along feature further enhances comprehension.*
Provides helpful text translations
Alongside hyperlinked key word/glossary definitions, even more support is provided for non-native English-speaking students – particularly where an understanding of more technical language is requires – with the option to highlight and translate words or sections of text into one of over 100 languages, right there, onscreen.
Maximises students’ time with intuitive search
The quick and intuitive search functionality helps students swiftly get to the topics and key terms they need to nail, and gives them easy access to the visual aids and revision tools embedded throughout.
