WebAssign
WebAssign is the most widely used homework system in physics. Its integrated
Homework Management System enables you and your students to work as partners
in the teaching and learning process. The WebAssign Homework Management System
uses pedagogy and content found in the best-selling Serway physics books to
help your students see physics in action. When you assign homework using WebAssign,
your students are able to interact with the very concepts they are learning
about!
Enhanced Content from Thomson-Brooks/Cole
- Active Figures - improve visualization skills
Animated figures from the text come to life and allow students to visualize
phenomena and processes that can't be represented on the printed page.
In addition to viewing animations of the figures from the text, students
can change variables to see the effects, conduct suggested explorations
of the principles involved in the figure, and take and receive feedback
on quizzes related to the figure.
- Active Examples - build a bridge between practice and homework
Serway physics texts are filled with helpful worked Examples. These acclaimed
examples have been enhanced in WebAssign to include hints and feedback specific
to students' answers to help them master the concept in the worked
Example. And to help build their problem-solving confidence, students are
also provided with a slightly more difficult follow-up problem to ensure
they are ready to tackle the end-of-chapter homework problems.
- End of Chapter Problems - now with feedback!
Serway texts are renowned for their outstanding collection of end-of-chapter
Problems. There are three levels of Problems, graded according to their
difficulty. All problems have been carefully worded and have been checked
for clarity and accuracy. And now you'll find algorithmic versions
of all end-of-chapter Problems from your Serway textbook available in
the WebAssign Homework Management System.
- Quick Quizzes
Quick Quiz questions are included throughout each text and in the WebAssign
Homework Management System to provide opportunities for students to test
their understanding of physical concepts just presented in the text.
All Quick Quizzes are cast in an objective format, including multiple
choice, true/false, and ranking.
- Conceptual Questions
A selection of Conceptual Questions allows students to test themselves
on text concepts. Applying Physics examples from the texts serve as models
for students when Conceptual Questions are assigned in the WebAssign Homework Management System, and
show how the concepts can be applied to understanding the physical world.
Conceptual Questions are ideal for initiating classroom discussions.
