Overall Satisfaction with WileyPLUS

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.
  • Adaptive Practice has supported improved student learning.
  • Requiring it across sections has brought some consistency to student learning.
  • They keep improving and adding new features that make instructor's job easier and supports learning.

Would you buy WileyPLUS again?

Yes

It is great if you are only one teaching class or if you are course coordinator and can require it across all sections. Could be some push-back if different instructors in same course and some use it and others don't because of additional cost. Need to make sure at least some assignments are required so students feel they are getting their money's worth.
