Connect Management powered by LearnSmart with Interactives® is McGraw-Hill's web-based assignment and assessment platform that connects you and your students to the coursework. Interactives provided for each chapter of the textbook allow students to "do" management, stimulate critical thinking, and reinforce key concepts. Students receive immediate feedback and can track their progress in their own report. The following 6 types of Interactives were developed for MANAGEMENT based on actual book-specific content.

1. Case Video Pop-up Analysis: Case study videos are included, and include 6 multiple-choice pop-up questions that appear as the video plays, to test concept and/or terminology comprehension.
2. Drag and Drop Sequencing Activity: To reinforce either chronological or multi-step processes, we provide a written overview of a topic from the text. The 8 items that represent each the steps of the overall process are included that the student will place in order on the provided timeline. If applicable a 2nd task will be to assign the appropriate 'players' to each task.
3. Prediction/Decision Generators: Students are presented with 2-3 concepts from the text and a written case study that illustrates the concepts presented. The students will then answer a series of questions to either predict what the company will do or reach a decision on a certain issue (the 'evidence' presented will be very concrete to ensure a clearly correct response).
4. Comprehension Multiple-Choice Activities: In order to reinforce comprehension of terminology within context, a case example from the text is included that illustrates key terms from the chapter. Students will then be provided with 6 multiple-choice questions that bridge the content from the case to the mastery of terminology.
5. Chart Population: Students will be asked to categorize information by assigning items to specific fields within a chart. Students will then be asked to analyze the chart created with 6 multiple-choice questions.
6. Self-Assessments: Students will take assessments to determine their beliefs, values, and interests in a variety of areas.

LearnSmart ensures your students are learning faster, studying more efficiently, and retaining more knowledge. It pinpoints concepts the student does not understand and maps out a personalized study plan for success. Based on students' self-diagnoses of their proficiency, LearnSmart intelligently provides students with a series of adaptive questions. This provides students with a personalized one-on-one tutor experience.
