We use it for our accounting classes. It intergrades well with Canvas. They have quality content and are relevant to meet our teaching needs. Several of their textbooks has a data analytics component which is very helpful.
  • Quality content - the materials were developed by faculty who have lots of experience in the field. Several of their textbooks have a data analytics component which is very helpful for our students.
  • Great customer support - representatives from Wiley are very good at returning emails and they are very attentive to any needs that we have for their products.
  • Good value - I believe their textbooks along with their learning supplements provide very good value for faculty and our students.
  • I have compared them with other publishers and I can't think of any at the moment. Other publishers may have several titles for the same subject as Wiley, which provides more options for instructors to pick from, but I personally don't think it's an issue.
It's a good platform that has some very good content. We use Canvas as our learning management platform. It is nice to be able to integrate some of the pre-build WileyPLUS course modules into our Canvas course. Other publishers are good too and they sync with Canvas, but I find Wiley's Canvas modules easy to use and customize.

We use WileyPLUS for some of our courses. Students use WileyPLUS for their homework assignments and to prepare for their exams.
  • WileyPLUS provides excellent Power Point Slides.
  • They provide up-to-date learning materials.
  • They have very supportive customer service team.
  • They could provide simplified steps to set up a homework assignment.
  • The selections of different features could be displayed on the same webpage with different tabs.
  • Overall, WileyPLUS has done a wonderful job and I enjoy using it.
With the help of WileyPLUS, instructors can prepare the teaching efficiently using pre-build Power Point Slides and solutions, and set up homework assignment and exams from abundant resources. Students can also have interactive learning by using adaptive practices. Wiley also provides up-to-date materials and problem-solving videos for students to learn effectively.

We use many WileyPLUS textbooks for our undergraduate and graduate-level courses. They have many options in textbooks. They really care about students and instructors. Their sales and technical support are excellent. They provide many useful materials (e.g., PowerPoint slides, animations, solution manuals) for instructors. They keep updating the materials up to date.

I utilize WileyPLUS for my personal finance courses at FHSU. Students love the easy-to-use platform and the affordability of the product. I love the fact that it is auto-graded, algorithmic, easy to adapt, and comes with multiple different resources for students and faculty. The customer support and tech support are phenomenal.
  • Student resources
  • Faculty resources
  • Customer support
  • Tech support
  • Affordability
  • Could use a more thorough ongoing case study that is in WileyPLUS platform for assessment. Currently has one, but would appreciate a more detailed comprehensive case.
I love WileyPLUS for educational purposes. It is appropriate for courses that require regular assessment for each chapter that include calculations and the need for algorithmic problems.

I use WileyPLUS in my mathematics course. It provides a cost-effective e book and enables immediate feedback on assignments. I have been using it for 6 semesters, with each class having approximately 40 students.
  • Easy to install.
  • Great customer support.
  • I like their weekly tips: it would be nice to have a library of them.
It is extremely useful for freshmen classes.

WileyPLUS is the online book and homework system for my course. I have been very happy with the integration with canvas which saves time and keeps grades automatically updated. The e-text displays through VitalSource so students can highlight and make flashcards out of the text. There are supportive topical videos, interactives, and multimedia support for course topics. I teach organic chemistry, so I really appreciate the mechanism and synthesis explorer questions that can be pooled! They make improvements often and are responsive to feedback. They have adaptive assignments that you can define by the sections of text covered (content-adaptive). There are a few errors in the homework questions and some questions are too broad leaving students guessing what format they should use for the answer. I would recommend WileyPLUS!
  • Customer service! Whenever I have trouble, they are quick to help!
  • The conversational tone of the text is easily understood by students and the drawings/visuals are excellent!
  • Integration with canvas makes grading the online homework effortless!
  • There are a few errors in the homework answers.
  • Some questions could be worded better to help students better match the formatting expectations when they change throughout the chapter.
  • The offline PDF of the text should always be included in any online package.
I have 450 students, so I couldn't grade homework for that many students and give feedback if that is all I did all day! It is great for large courses and encourages interaction with the material! The integration with canvas is essential for extra-large courses - I would never go back now! Really, whether you have 20 or 450 it gives students an opportunity to work through the material with fast feedback which aids in learning the material.

WileyPLUS has always been a great support for our course - helping us to customize our lab manual for the A&P course. Any time a problem cropped up - they were right there to help us through it. The materials in WileyPlus are a great help to the students' learning in a heavy content course. The WileyPLUS courses are easy to use and provide so many resources - they make the course easier to teach.
  • customer support - quick and easy
  • lots of resources available
  • reasonable pricing
  • improve test banks for A&P

I use WileyPLUS for two different courses I teach, one on the main campus at Western and one with Western Continuing Studies. The software allows students to complete assigned textbook-based homework questions online and with ease.
  • Uses Canvas platform.
  • Integrates with textbook.
  • Excellent customer support.
  • More flexibility.
  • Ability to edit and write own questions.
Well suited as a complement to a class or for a fully online class. The system would be functional to manage all aspects of online learning,

WileyPlus helps me grade students' work with auto-grading. It gives the students immediate feedback that I could not provide. Wiley Plus provides many tools for my students, such as the etext, videos, flashcards, audio text, and more videos. I really like the Adaptive Assignment, because it helps the students see their weak points.
  • Auto-grading- provides immediate feedback to students.
  • Adaptive assignment- helps the students see their weak areas.
  • Video, videos, and more videos! There are solution walk-through videos, interactive tutorials, and real-world videos.
  • Tech support- I get help when I need it, right away!
  • In an ideal world, there would be no errors.
  • No typos. (especially in the power points)
  • They need better error reporting in Adaptive Assignment.
I've used Wiley Plus for many years, and they just keep adding more great tools every year! The tools my students have in their hands provide them with anything they need to learn the content. One of my students said in my end-of-semester review, "You can't help but get an A in this class when you use all that Wiley Plus has to offer!"

We use WileyPlus for many different accounting classes in the business department. It is an intuitive online platform that includes the student's books, interactive tutorials, homework, videos, CPA exam preparation questions, etc. It integrates well with our LMS but also has an excellent standalone login. Their customer support for both instructors and students is responsive and takes the burden off the instructor to figure out why something won't work.
  • CPA Exam Review - Accounting students see they are learning, it's on the CPA exam!
  • Interactive Tutorials: Caters to different learning styles
  • Video Homework Solution Walkthroughs
  • Not being able to edit their question sets (preset homework) for late policies, etc.
It is well suited for students who have access to the internet and technology. During the pandemic some students home internet hasn't been great and they can't use it. That isn't a fault of WileyPlus, just an unfortunate reality of our current situation. It is well suited to online classes though with many resources for students to learn on their own and for instructors to assign.

WileyPLUS is currently used in my department as a source of course material and also for assessment. It has helped with the uniformity across sections taught by different instructors and with the current situation of teaching remote, it has been useful for testing students.
  • Quality of the content it provides for our students.
  • Quick customer service response.
  • Easy to use platform and easy to integrate into LMS being used.
  • Difficulty of end of chapter problems.
  • Removing solutions for problems from the web.
WileyPLUS is suited for an online course offering. It has all the capabilities needed for an online course—quality and detailed content, short videos based on content, and video illustrations, and problem-solving techniques (chalkboard problems). Finally, it also gives an instructor the flexibility to add/remove materials one does not require for a particular course.

It is being used in all sections of our Accounting for Managers, Principles of Financial Accounting, Principles of Managerial Accounting, and Intermediate Accounting I & II. We use it to help students learn the content, complete homework, quizzing, and exams (not used in all sections for exams.)
  • Provides excellent study resources for students.
  • Provides effective ways for faculty to assign assessments of various levels to students.
  • Provides agile customer support.
  • Provide the students with a print option within assignments.
Higher education.

I use it in the various computer science courses as a tool for adaptive learning. It's been a fantastic tool so far and well worth exploring further as they take faculty input and add it to their platform. It helps build content and courses a lot more efficiently than depending on faculty to build them out themselves.
  • Quick to adopt.
  • Takes input from customers.
  • Great training and planning features.
  • The tools are external to the learning management system.
  • It can take time for students to learn how to use it.
For any course that has a WileyPLUS counterpart especially in online education, it's well worth exploring further. It's easily one of the best tools when comparing similar options from other publishers.

I am currently using WileyPLUS in my Thermodynamics class and am considering using it for my Materials Science class in the future. I like WileyPLUS because I can easily create and modify assignments, or use suggested assignments from Wiley. I can also embed additional resources from the e-text and supporting documents such as video examples, animations, and more directly into my LMS for easy student access.
  • Randomized number for all problems to prevent students from copying each others work
  • Ease of integration into LMS (Canvas)
  • Competitive pricing
  • Automatic grading
  • Simplifies focus for students (removes less applicable content)
  • Great customer service
  • Easily customizable grading (number of attempts, point deductions, hints and solutions available to students).
  • My text (Moran 9e Fundamentals of Thermodynamics) doesn't have adaptive practice
  • I'd like to be able to add my own questions to the question sets occasionally
I think the adaptive practice really puts the platform over the top. If my text had that, or the text I was recommending had adaptive practice, I'd recommend it 10/10 times! It's still very useful and I'm enjoying the platform, but that has been the more significant downside so far.

WileyPLUS is being used in the Department of Chemistry for our Organic Chemistry courses. WileyPLUS helps us engage our students and prepare them for high-stakes testing.
  • WileyPLUS is a great engagement tool for our students.
  • WileyPLUS helps students practice questions that are very similar to exam questions.
  • WileyPLUS helps students develop the skills necessary to succeed in Organic Chemistry.
  • WileyPLUS's interface is a little dated but their new platform which is coming in Fall 2021 is a modern and sleek interface.
  • It will take you a semester or two to figure out what works best for your students but that is true of any online homework program.
  • WileyPLUS can be daunting to start, but their support is great and helps you get through the starting pains.
WileyPLUS is great at providing multiple ways to assess students, pre-lecture, post-lecture, multi-chapter. The flexibility is amazing.

WileyPLUS is being used for students as part of an accounting course. We use WileyPLUS for assessments, providing students with practice questions, and to enhance the learning experience.
  • Responsive Service Team
  • Flexible platform
  • Integration with platforms
  • Continuing to add to test bank
  • Continuing to add Excel-based questions
  • Continuing to add more algorithmic questions
WileyPLUS is well suited for courses where there is a desire to supplement the learning experience with great features. I can’t think of many scenarios from an educational perspective where WileyPLUS would be less appropriate.
