Modeling Learning Tools and Strategies Through Courseware Data Reporting Features

Michele Hampton, a professor of economics, uses McGraw Hill Connect’s learning reports for this purpose. She teaches students how to read and interpret the data in the reports to assess their learning and progress. She also models for students how to use these reports by allowing the reports to shape her teaching. When the data reveals that a concept was challenging for many students, she uses that data to adjust in-class instruction time.
