Thank You for Growing With Us
Sapling Learning is the
result of bringing two
successful educational
technology companies
together to deliver the most
effective instruction for the
problem-solving disciplines.
Science Technologies was
a successful educational
multimedia company,
founded in 1998 out
of the University of Texas, that produced state-of-theart educational content for college-level science and
mathematics, for over a decade. Science Technologies
produced over 35 media and simulation CDs and websites, as
well as much of the online homework questions in the market
today, for leading science and math textbooks. However, the
isolation of the courseware and student performance data
from the grade book and other instructor tools missed critical
opportunities for instructors to monitor their students and
assist in the learning process.
and tracking of student performance tracking through a
grade book and analytic tools. To achieve this goal, Sapling
Systems built the most easy-to-use and discipline-relevant
online homework software in the market.
At the request of many faculty wanting a textbookindependent online learning system and better support,
the best of both of these companies was combined in 2007
to form Sapling Learning. Today, Sapling Learning is a rare
blend of professional educators, scientists, textbook authors,
editors, instructional technologies experts, animators,
artists, designers, and software developers. Because Sapling
Learning is founded by educators, our sales and Tech TAs are
focused on facilitating the implementation of online learning
technologies in blended classrooms, working with faculty
on a colleague-to-colleague level to match their curriculum
and student learning objectives, as well as the other learning
materials they use with their class, such as textbooks.
As we have evolved, in many ways Sapling Learning
personifies the rapid change that the education market
is currently undergoing — often by leading but also by
responding to new dynamics. For those of you that have
been with us for much of the ride, thank you for your support.
For those just getting to know Sapling, hop on board!
In 2005, Sapling Systems was created by the founders of
Science Technologies to develop software to meet instructor
requirements for creation and control of content, online
instruction through problem-solving practice and coaching,

Why Choose Sapling Learning?
■■ Ease of Use
Sapling Learning’s user-friendly interface lets students
focus on solving homework problems – not learning the
software application.
■■ Targeted Instructional Content
High-quality content and rich, immediate feedback
increase student engagement and comprehension.
■■ Unsurpassed Service and Support
Sapling Learning’s PhD- and Masters-level Tech TAs are
ready to help with everything from setting up course
assignments to writing new questions.
■■ Textbook Independence
Sapling Learning is not tied to any specific textbook,
so it’s simple to customize Sapling Learning to your
syllabus.
Sapling Learning is a leading provider of interactive homework
and instruction software for the problem-solving disciplines.
Since 2004, Sapling Learning has focused on providing
students with rich, discipline-specific interactions, such as
molecule drawing and graphing, to promote engagement
and comprehension in Science, Technology, Engineering
& Mathematics (STEM) courses. Sapling Learning provides
instructors unprecedented flexibility to create and customize

environment. No other solution provides such seamless
integration between rich learning elements and colleaguelevel customer support.
Ease of Use
“Sapling Learning is a far
more intuitive website for
homework than the Pearson
website...” – Physics Student,
University of Texas, Tyler
“It has been a great success.
It’s easy to use and has an
intuitive drawing program
that allows students to draw
multiple choice questions.
And best of all, many of my
students have told me that
they enjoyed and benefited
from it greatly, and had a
better grasp of the material
because of it.” – Professor
Tarek Sammakia, University
of Colorado, Organic
Chemistry
“My students have almost
universal praise for the
Sapling online homework
system.” – Professor
Patty Somers, Colorado
State University, Organic
Chemistry
Targeted Content
“I thought I would let you
know that I have found
Sapling to be quite effective
through the first exam of
the semester. I gave this
year’s class the same exam
as last year without Sapling
and I found a significant
increase in the average
score. The students have all
told me that they believe
the homework is helping
them do better.” – Professor
Unsurpassed Service
Textbook Independence
“Having a personal Tech TA
to help with troubleshooting
was definitely one of
Sapling’s major advantages
over other online homework
systems.” – Professor
“It’s also great that it is
relatively easy to change
and alter these questions so
that they fit the course. In all
other homework systems one
has always to live with the
given questions and I do not
like it.” – Professor Suzanne
Rebecca Shapiro, UC Irvine,
General Chemistry
“Yes! I will be using Sapling
this summer. I have my
syllabus ready to go. Will
I be able to work with
Jessica White (my Tech TA)
again? She is amazing.
She is extremely attentive
and prompt with all my
questions.” – Professor
Michael Sehorn, Clemson
University, Biochemistry
“I like that it is online and
that you can get an instant
response to each individual
question.” – General
Diana Glick, Georgetown
University, General
Chemistry
Chemistry Student,
Southeast Missouri State
University
Striegler, Auburn University,
Organic Chemistry
“My favorite moment
using Sapling so far came
from when I asked my
Tech TA to help me put the
quiz together. We spent
20 minutes on the phone
discussing what I wanted,
and then an hour and a half
later it magically appeared
in my in chapter 16 section.”
– Professor Jesse Reich,
Massachusetts Maritime
Academy

■■ Professor Lisa Bonner | St. Anselm College
Lisa Bonner describes herself as a better organic chemistry instructor with Sapling
Learning.
“I needed better content and a better way of assigning homework. Sapling Learning makes is
simple to monitor students’ performance and prepare lessons knowing where they need the
most help.”
■■ Professor Bahram Moasser | Georgetown University
Chemistry Professor Bahram Moasser inspires students to spend more time on homework
with Sapling Learning.
“Sapling Learning helps students organize their thinking, reframe problems that they’re
having trouble with, and get pointed in the right direction.”
“Sapling Learning gives me real insight into who’s doing the homework, and into student
learning styles.”
■■ Professor Laurie Parker | Purdue University
With Sapling Learning, Purdue associate professor Laurie Parker’s organic chemistry
students spend more time doing their homework—and get better grades.
“Doing the problems is a real key to success when it comes to organic chemistry.”
“Sapling is great in terms of homework content, as well as really flexible.”
■■ Lecturer Rebecca Shapiro | University of California, Irvine
Lecturer Rebecca Shapiro’s general chemistry students achieve superior results with
Sapling Learning.
“Sapling Learning is the next best thing to having a live chemistry tutor. Competing

■ The Challenge
■ The Results
Georgetown University Chemistry Professor Bahram Moasser
knows that out-of-class assignments are a key part of positioning
students to succeed. Only by completing homework assignments
do students grasp the concepts presented in his general chemistry
class. Only by solving problems themselves do they learn how to
build and test hypotheses — an essential skill in academia and
beyond. As Moasser puts it, “Reading the textbook and attending
class aren’t enough. To really learn, students need to struggle
through the problems on their own.”
Today, homework counts for 10 percent of Moasser’s students’
grades, and he assigns both Sapling problems and textbook
problems for students to tackle outside class. “They do the

What Your Tech TA Can Do For You
SM
You are assigned a committed Technology Teaching Assistant (Tech TA), a PhD- or Masters-level colleague in your discipline.
He or she will create your homework assignments and act as your advisor throughout the term.
■■ Create Your Course
Course creation is fast and effortless, since your Tech TA
does the heavy lifting. You review the assignments. If you
would like changes, simply request a revision from your
Tech TA.
■■ Provide You with Training
If you would like to tackle some customization on your
own, your Tech TA will provide you with training and
ongoing support. Sapling Learning’s authoring and
course management environments are easy to use,
whether you are uploading course documents or writing
your own questions.
■■ Upload Your Student Roster
Your students can enroll in Sapling Learning and create
their own accounts, but if you would like more control,
you can send the roster to your Tech TA. He or she will
automatically generate accounts.
■■ Fix Errors
At Sapling Learning, we pride ourselves on our rigorous
review process. That said, if you do find a mistake, just
let your Tech TA know about it. We will fix it before your
students ever see it!
■■ Customize Your Grading Procedures
Do you want to give students a second chance at an
assignment? Do you like to drop the lowest grade? Your
Tech TA can set up your course and assignments to
accommodate many different policies.
■■ Resolve Student Issues
Student email support is provided by a colleague as
well. He or she coordinates with your Tech TA to ensure
consistency. Students and instructors find our service
unsurpassed in the industry.
■■ Modify Questions to Suit YOUR Course
We will initially tailor your course to the topic outline or
syllabus you provide. However, your Tech TA is happy to
tweak the questions to your specifications.
■■ Suggest New Ways to Use Your Online Tools
Our Tech TAs all have classroom experience. They work
with hundreds of instructors across North America, from
large research universities to small liberal arts colleges.
They are great resources for consultative insight about
online homework and problem-solving tools.
■■ Write New Questions
Sapling Learning’s question bank covers all the topics in
a typical course. However, if there are topics unique to
your course, your Tech TA can write custom questions to
complete your online homework.

Interactive eBook Series
■■ Fully Customizable
Adopt a text that molds to the way you teach. Begin with a comprehensive
eBook — Chemistry: Fundamentals and Principles by Charles F. Davidson or
Chemistry by John Olmsted and Greg Williams. Then, if you’d like, customize your
students’ experience by moving chapters and topics to best match your lectures.
You can even author a completely new section for your students.
■■ Integrated Online Learning & Assessment System
Sapling Learning eBooks are available exclusively with Sapling Learning, the
premiere online homework solution for introductory and general chemistry.
Sapling Learning helps students engage with homework, so they retain what
they learn in your class and throughout the book. Each question contains
targeted, instructional feedback responding to student mistakes, just like a
personal tutor. The assignments can be directly embedded into the eBook,
creating a truly integrated text.
Chemistry
John Olmsted & Greg Williams
■■ Lecture Slides & Video Solutions for Chemistry
Instructors using our eBook for general chemistry have access to lecture slides
and video solutions for selected problems. Enhance your lectures with a slide
deck created by Kendra Evans (University of Detroit-Mercy). Use the eBook
images to create another level of connection between your classroom and
the textbook. Give your students detailed video solutions to selected Sapling
Learning problems worked by John Pollard (University of Arizona).
■■ eBook for Life
We don’t think students should have to surrender access to their textbook when
the term is over. Students maintain online access to their eBook throughout their
college career. Students can save their eBook (PDF or HTML format), print on
paper, or order a bound copy. The choice is theirs.
■■ Competitive Pricing
College textbook prices are out of control! Competitive pricing makes Sapling
Learning eBooks a smart solution for all your course materials.
■■ Compatibility
The eBook can be viewed on Macs, PCs, or iPads.
