You may also package your text with a variety of other learning tools that are available for your students:
McGraw-Hill’s Homework Manager and Homework Manager Plus
Are you looking for a way to spend less time grading and to have more flexibility with the problems you assign as homework and tests? McGraw-Hill’s Homework Manager is an exciting new package option developed for this text! Homework Manager is a Web-based tool for instructors and students for delivering, answering, and grading end-of-chapter problems and tests, and providing a limitless supply of self-graded practice for students.
All of the book’s applicable end-of-chapter questions and problems are loaded into Homework Manager, and instructors can choose to assign the exact problems as stated in the book, or algorithmic versions of them so each student has a unique set of variables for the problems. You create the assignments and control parameters such as whether you want your students to receive hints, whether this is a graded assignment or practice, etc. The test bank is also available in Homework Manager, giving you the ability to use those questions for online tests. Both the problems and the tests are automatically graded, and the results are stored in a private grade book, which is created when you set up your class. Detailed results let you see at a glance how each student does on an assignment or an individual problem—you can even see how many tries it took the student to solve it. If you order this special package, students will receive a Homework Manager User’s Guide and an access code packaged with their text.
An enhanced version of McGraw-Hill’s Homework Manager is also available through the Homework Manager Plus package option. If you order the text packaged with HM Plus, your students will receive Homework Manager as described above, but with an integrated online text included. When students are in Homework Manager and need more help to solve a problem, there will be a link that takes them to the section of the text online that explains the concept they are struggling with. All of McGraw-Hill’s media assets, such as videos, narrated lectures, and additional online quizzing, are also integrated at the appropriate places of the online text to provide students with a full learning experience. If you order this special package, students will receive the HM Plus card packaged with their text, which gives them access to all of these products, as well as an online Homework Manager User’s Guide.
McGraw-Hill’s Homework Manager is powered by Brownstone.
