Book Overview

Engage Every Economics Student, Achieve is a comprehensive set of interconnected teaching and assessment tools that supports students and instructors at each stage in the learning path, from pre-class to in-class and post-class. Our resources were co-designed with instructors and students, using a foundation of learning research and rigorous testing, and offer unparalleled data and analytics on student performance. Engaging students for better outcomes, Pre-built assignments include a variety of activities to engage students both inside and outside of class. Research shows that the more engagement a student has with Achieve, the higher their final exam scores by a full letter grade. Supporting students of all levels, Achieve is designed for all students, from high achievers to those who need extra support. Students less academically prepared who engage in 80% or more of their assigned Achieve activities close the performance gap with more prepared peers by about half. Students more academically prepared see a boost of about nine percentage points on final exam scores at 80% or higher engagement with Achieve activities.
