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.

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.

Reliable tool! Students learn!
I'm very grateful for the quality of WileyPLUS products, the number and variety of resources available to incorporate in my courses, and their support of my students' learning. The team is responsive and supportive. Solid academic resources.
- The auto-grader is reliable.
- Variety of learning activities (videos, tutorials, references, textbook, and assessments).
- The challenge level of analytic and excel assignments that are integrated with the course material should be higher.

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.

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.

WileyPlus: Accounting Classes
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 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.

Just a fantastic tool for adaptive learning.
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.

WileyPLUS for Stat 200 at Penn State
All sections of our course Stat 200 rely on WileyPLUS embedded in Canvas for our eTextbook, practice problems, graded homework assignments, and adaptive practice.
- eTextbook is accommodating and has interactive features to benefit learning.
- Policies control on assignments is exactly what we want to control.
- Adaptive Practice allows students to have content issues identified and remedied effectively.
- After attending the most recent training update for improvements on their way, all the areas I was looking for improvement on have been addressed.

WileyPLUS is used for online teaching, homework, and assessment in the School of Business in multiple courses. Students purchase the product and instructors design the assignments, quizzes, and exams. A course eBook is also included when students purchase WileyPLUS, which often saves students a lot of money, as they don't have to purchase a text separately. WileyPLUS is also used in other departments and schools within the university. It comes with a huge question bank for homework and exams. It also has a very strong adaptive practice tool, which provides individual student-focused "drilling" and assessment. Of course it has a grade book too.
- Online homework
- Enabling adaptive learning
- Online assessment
- eBook
- Summarized grading
- More full integration into university LMS
- More algorithmic questions
- Elimination of some elements of Canvas that are not needed

WileyPLUS Review
We are using WileyPLUS integrated into Blackboard for several of our science classes, no matter who is teaching it. Some assignments are required for consistency, and others are optional for each instructor to add as they wish. The Adaptive Practice assignments are used as formative learning for all sections. It has been a valuable learning tool for student success.
- Great instructor support and training.
- Seek instructor feedback and input and keep implementing new updates.
- Adaptive Practice definitely helps student success and brings consistency across multiple sections, often taught by new part-time instructors.
- Integration into LMS has made the experience seamless for students and added the ease of automatic input in to the LMS gradebook.
- Over the years Wiley has had multiple platforms at one time, but that is changing to one common platform this coming year, which will solve some confusion when initially getting students enrolled in their sections.
- WileyPLUS does add some cost to product for students, but students do have option if they want to use only the code and not purchase print book and unless they are on financial aid and have to purchase through school bookstore with their markup, they could purchase directly from Wiley after 14-day free trial at lower cost.
- Transitioning between changing platforms does take some time to adjust, but the support is there in so many forms - assigned support staff, 24-hour email for instructors, chat for students, lots of video tutorials, etc.

WileyPLUS it is!
I have used WileyPLUS as an online tool to help my students practice the concepts that are taught in class. I especially like that they are continuously adapting and evolving. They take their users input into consideration as they bring out new versions of WileyPLUS. My students love the videos that are accessible via Orion. I have been a WileyPLUS user for a few years now.
- Their videos
- The range of questions per learning objective
- The layout
- Integration could be a little challenging at times
- More quantitative examples-excel based questions. This is just for the book that I use so it should not be considered a missing functionality.
- More algorithmic questions. This is just for the book that I use so it should not be considered a missing functionality.

WileyPLUS is an excellent platform, but would be even better if Adaptive Practice was included in all texts.

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

- WileyPLUS can be daunting to start, but their support is great and helps you get through the starting pains.

WileyPLUS is constantly innovating
WileyPLUS is an e-learning platform utilized by several disciplines both online and traditionally. It is used in combination with our LMS to deliver high-quality, varied instructional materials to higher education students.
- It innovates. WileyPLUS is not a stagnant platform. There are updates and new tools/ideas all the time.
- It supports students and instructors. Too often third-party platforms are challenging because student and instructor support are non-existent. WileyPLUS does a good job supporting students and instructors, and they are very good at creating community among users.
- Some of the processes for integrating the product with learning management systems are confusing and complicated.
