MasteringChemistry

Engaging experiences. Improving results. Experienced partner.

MasteringChemistry is an online homework, tutorial and assessment system. It provides students with individual feedback, enables you to track their progress and is proven to improve problem solving skills.

While fitting flexibly around the rest of your course, MasteringChemistry provides a personalised experience that activates learning for every student.

Engaging experiences Feedback and Assessment Students work through problems at their own pace, opening hints if they need help. If they make an error, they receive feedback based on the specific mistake, so that they learn from it.

If they make a mathematical error, the student is offered algorithmically generated maths exercises so they can practice and master their maths skills.

Every assignment is automatically marked, saving you time.

MarvinSketch Tool The new molecular drawing tool supports Lewis structures, skeletal structures, and complex mechanisms/arrow pushing and evaluates multiple aspects of the student created structures in order to provide the most precise feedback possible.

Adaptive Learning Mastering and Adaptive Learning allow for a continuous assessment of student performance and activity in real time.

Using data and analytics, it personalises content to reinforce concepts that target each student’s particular strengths and weaknesses, creating greater engagement, improving knowledge retention, and supporting subject-matter mastery.

Improving results MasteringChemistry is being used in universities all around the world to improve student performance.

The average mark is approximately 10% higher than it was previously. Furthermore the failure rate has decreased significantly – from 32% to 5–14% in recent years.

MasteringChemistry is the best online chemistry homework program that I have used. The structure of the questions and the hints motivate the students to continue working on the problems, and the immediate feedback increases their confidence.
