Homework in Achieve is designed to support deeper learning with built-in tools like…

• AI Student Tutor, which uses a Socratic approach to help students work through homework problems—asking guiding questions rather than providing answers—so they build understanding step by step.
• Built-in step-by-step solutions that ensure students understand not just the answer but the reasoning behind it.
• A robust question bank featuring thousands of editable questions, allowing instructors to customize homework assignments to align with their course material and learning objectives.

• LearningCurve Adaptive Quizzing adjusts question sets and difficulty based on student responses to keep them engaged without feeling overwhelmed. Each question links back to the e-book, guiding students to read and review relevant sections when they struggle.
• Goal-setting & Reflection Surveys help students set learning goals, monitor progress, and reflect on their understanding, while pulse checks give instructors timely insights into student progress.

Simulations and Interactive Labs provide students with engaging, hands-on opportunities to explore astronomy. By adjusting interactive parameters, students can deepen their understanding of key concepts and explore relationships within the subject.

Some concepts are best understood visually, and Achieve brings astronomy to life with stunning animations and NASA-sourced videos. Whether used in class, assigned as homework, or explored independently, these visuals engage students and help them grasp challenging ideas more effectively.

• iClicker fosters active learning with real-time assessments and interactive activities like live polling, instant feedback, and group work. It helps instructors gauge understanding while keeping students engaged—and it’s included with Achieve at no extra cost!
• LMS Integration allows Achieve to seamlessly sync with Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, and other LMS platforms for easy course and grade management.
• Integrated e-books provide highlighting, note-taking, and text-to-speech features to help students engage with readings in ways that suit their needs.
