Physics Digital Suite

The Physics Digital Suite within McGraw Hill Connect is a compilation of digital resources which allow Physics instructors the flexibility to design their course to align with any introductory textbook. The Physics Digital Suite bridges the gap between lecture and lab by utilizing guided and open-exploration experiments to connect abstract physics concepts to everyday experiences.

Using videos, simulations, and interactive images of equipment, Virtual Labs and Lab Explorations allow students to perform experiments in a virtual laboratory setting while applying data acquisition and analysis skills. These labs supplement, support, and, prepare students for face-to-face labs and are further assignable with auto-graded, pre- and post-lab assessments.

Virtual Labs present experiments in a step-by-step, guided framework that offer a structured experience. Students are led through labs with built-in, auto-graded questions that check for understanding.
With Connect Virtual Labs for Physics, the Lab is Always Open.

ALEKS: Math Prep for College Physics

ALEKS is an artificial intelligence-based system that is able to determine what a student actually understands in mathematics and then is able to determine what the student is ready to learn next (knowledge states). Because it is completely individualized to each student, students are able to work at their pace and are therefore better able to master skills that once eluded them.
