• 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.
• Interactive Applications provided for each chapter of the textbook allow instructors to assign application-focused interactive activities, stimulate critical thinking, and reinforce key concepts. Instructors can customize these activities and monitor student progress.

The following 5 types of Interactive Applications were developed within Connect Marketing based on book-specific content.

1. VIDEO CASE: Each Video Case contains a 4-5 minute video profile of a real company/situation. As the video plays, the student is asked a series of multiple choice questions requiring him/her to relate chapter concepts to the video. This exercise is designed to engage the student through engaging interactive content that goes beyond basic recall and multiple choice.
2. DRAG AND DROP - Chart Population: Chart Population exercises require students to categorize information by assigning items to specific fields within a chart.
3. DRAG AND DROP – Sequencing Activity: Each sequencing activity begins with a written overview of a topic from the text. The student is then provided with a list of items that represent each of the steps of the overall process that he/she must place in order on the provided timeline. If applicable, a 2nd task will be to assign the appropriate actions to each task.
4. CASE ANALYSIS: Case Analysis Activities are designed to reinforce comprehension and application of key chapter concepts within the context of a case. Each case is based on a specific case/example from the text that illustrates key concepts from the chapter.
5. DECISION GENERATOR: Decision Generators present students with 2-3 concepts from the text and a written case study that illustrates the concepts presented. The student will then answer a series of questions to either predict what the company will do or reach a decision on a certain issue.
