The Power of Enhanced WebAssign Enhanced WebAssign is a tool that engages students in and outside the classroom. EWA gets students learning math not just doing math. 21.

EWA Efficacy Study Noteworthy Results: Students overwhelmingly indicated they valued the Watch It component as the most important learning tool. 7 out of 10 students using EWA said they were more motivated to learn and completed practice problems on their own even if not assigned or graded. cengage.com/engagementcenter 26. EWA Efficacy Study Noteworthy Results: Students using EWA received higher final course grades than students in similar courses without access to EWA. Twice as many (50% more) students using EWA received a final A grade for the course as those without access to EWA. cengage.com/engagementcenter 27. Take EWA to the limit! EWA has thousands of pre-programmed questions but you can easily add your own if you want. 28. Creating your own. 29. Easily Personalize Your Course 30. Learn the math, not just do the math Provide developmental students other opportunities to explore math, so that they can see that just doing the math is not the main goal.

Personalize Instructions 35. The PSP is more than just math. The study plan can help a developmental student build their confidence of math create a positive learning experience help reduce their math anxiety 36. The Power of Reports 37. Search and See How Others Use EWA After setting up my WebAssign to take attendance, I no longer have to ask my students about their absences or being late and the majority of my students approach me to explain the situation and inquire about the work they missed.
