Success Stories: What Instructors Say

Pedagogy

“I love that MasteringAstronomy provides my students with a range of always accessible, pedagogically outstanding, tracked and graded activities, along with instantaneous feedback.”
Professor Scott Hildreth, Chabot College, CA

“A truly amazing, outstanding combination of text and media!”
Professor Carl Rutledge, East Central University, OK

Tutorials

“By far the most useful, best-designed companion website which I have ever used. The tutorials, tutorials, TUTORIALS! The students' understanding of the subjects vastly increased by being able to interact with exercises and go at their own pace.”
Professor Tom Fleming, University of Arizona

Interactivity

“The tutorials and interactive tools turn MasteringAstronomy from simply homework into a learning tool. That's the forte of the system. If a picture is worth a thousand words, what is an animation worth? Now, instead of homework being simply words, its pictures and animations that turn the light bulb on in a student's head.”
Professor Sue Lederer, California State University, San Bernardino

Gradebook

“MasteringAstronomy is, in my opinion, a 'win-win' situation for both the instructor and his/her students. The students like the online activities and I like the gradebook.”
Professor George Tanyk, Oakton Community College
