Powerful features to support you and your students
Mastering will help you to improve learning outcomes for every student with innovative learning tools that actively engage students with the course content and provide personalised guidance so they can master concepts.

Wrong-answer feedback personalised for each student
Using data gathered from all the students using the program, Mastering offers wrong-answer feedback that is specific to each student, guiding them towards the correct final answer without giving the answer away.
Hints that offer clear guidance to students
Guided hints help students move forward, giving advice on how to approach the problem, as well as breaking it down into small sub-problems. Learners can reveal hints as they need them, providing just the right amount of support so they can master the concept themselves.


Adaptive Follow-Ups
With Adaptive Follow-Ups, assignments are broken into sets of questions that target gaps in each student’s understanding based on past performance on course work to date, including homework, tests, and quizzes. Available for select titles.
Dynamic Study Modules
Dynamic Study Modules are assignable modules that pose a series of question sets about a course topic. Questions adapt to each student’s performance and offer personalised, targeted feedback to help them master key concepts. Available for select titles.


Performance analytics
Track student performance against specified learning outcomes at the individual and class levels. Mastering problems are tagged to publisher-provided learning outcomes or add your own course-specific, department-wide, or institution-wide learning outcomes.
