Main description:

This is the access card only and does not include the textbook.
LaunchPad contains resources for you and your students; it combines an interactive e-book with high-quality multimedia content and ready-made assessment options, including LearningCurve adaptive quizzing. Curated pre-built units are easy to assign or adapt with your own material, such as video, animations, simulations, readings, quizzes, discussion groups and more.
LaunchPad also provides access to a grade book that shows both class and individual student performance, and for individual assignments as well. While a streamlined interface helps students focus on what's due next, social commenting tools let them engage, make connections, and learn from each other. Use LaunchPad on its own or integrate it with your school's learning management system so your class is always on the same page.
