SMARTBOOK
•
SMARTBOOK is the first and only adaptive reading
experience.
•
•
Provides you with “high impact minutes” of study time. In other
words, SMARTBOOK will give you the most critical information
you need at that moment in time. The more time you spend in
the program the better it gets to know and adapt to you.
With SMARTBOOK, you will learn faster and more
efficiently. You will also earn higher grades if used in
accordance with the syllabus and as a way to prep for lecture.
Four Phases
1.
2.
3.
4.
Preview: Provides an expectation of what you are going to learn about and
should be reading for.
Read: Highlights the most critical information in the text. Yellow Highlights
means you have shown no competency in this area. Green highlights mean you
have answered this probe correct in the past but may need to reinforce.
Practice: This is the phase where you complete your assigned activities. Getting
your progress to 100% = 100% for your grade on that assignment. Pay attention
to the confidence buttons. Answering truthfully will help the program adapt to
you and save your study time.
Recharge: SMARTBOOK can predict what you are most likely to forget and the
rate at which you will forget certain topics unique to you. You must recharge to
perform well on exams.
