WileyPLUS

WileyPLUS is a powerful, yet easy-to-use, technology solution that provides instructors and students with a suite of interactive resources, including:

  • A complete online version of the textbook that has been integrated with other resources such as simulations, animations and video clips.
  • The ability to automate the assigning and grading of homework and quizzes.
  • An online gradebook to track the progress and performance of students’ work.
  • A robust set of presentation tools, such as PowerPoint slides and image galleries.
  • Context-sensitive help for students in the form of direct links to the online text, hints, solutions, and tutorials – right from their homework problems.
  • Money-saving options for students. WileyPLUS can be packaged with new copies of the textbook, or purchased as a stand-alone item for substantially less than the price of the printed book (allowing students to use the online version instead).
