Review

What are instructors are saying about MyMathLab? "We use the MyMathLab software and are extremely pleased with the content and the technical support. We could not use this approach without it! Eighty-two percent of the students in the pilot actually admitted that it helped them learn the mathematics." from Phoebe Rouse, LSU "The increase in student success is 27%. Students that would have been lost with a nontransferable 'D' or an 'F' are now passing the course." from a Community College in the Chicago area "My exam averages and course pass rates our up. Students are actively engaged in practicing math, ask more and better questions, and enjoy the learning process. They appreciate the instant feedback and aren't satisfied until they get 100 percent on the homework assignments. When it comes time to register for the next class, most students who have done both lecture-based and MyMathLab hybrid classes, seek out the MyMathLab sections. They feel a real sense of accomplishment because they recognize and can take credit for the role they've played in their success." from Jill Shirley, Cal Poly Pomona "After teaching with MML I wouldn't want to go back to the traditional way of teaching Math. MML stimulates better student/teacher interaction in a lab setting. It tracks and grades homework for you. And it's a great tutorial for students when they get stuck." from Sheila Pisa, Riverside Community College (CA) "MML is one of the most reliable of all online Math programs." from Sheila Pisa, Riverside Community College (CA) "I absolutely love MML. I believe whole-heartedly that it has made a definite improvement in my students' grades and understanding level. I have fewer students dropping out of the courses I am teaching using this method than in the past - before MML. I recommend it to everybody I know!!" from Susan Hutchinson, Florence Darlington Technical College

Book Description

This access kit will provide you with a code to get into MyMathLab, a personalized interactive learning environment, where you can learn mathematics and statistics at your own pace and measure your progress. In order to use MyMathLab, you will need a CourseID provided by your instructor; MyMathLab is not a self-study product and does require you to be in an instructor-led course. MyMathLab includes:

Interactive tutorial exercises: MyMathLab's homework and practice exercises are correlated to the exercises in the relevant textbook, and they regenerate algorithmically to give you unlimited opportunity for practice and mastery. Most exercises are free-response and provide an intuitive math symbol palette for entering math notation. Exercises include guided solutions, sample problems, and learning aids for extra help at point-of-use, and they offer helpful feedback when students enter incorrect answers.

eBook with multimedia learning aids: MyMathLab courses include a full eBook with a variety of multimedia resources available directly from selected examples and exercises on the page. You can link out to learning aids such as video clips and animations to improve their understanding of key concepts.

Study plan for self-paced learning: MyMathLab's study plan helps you monitor your own progress, letting you see at a glance exactly which topics you need to practice. MyMathLab generates a personalized study plan for you based on your test results, and the study plan links directly to interactive, tutorial exercises for topics you haven't yet mastered. You can regenerate these exercises with new values for unlimited practice, and the exercises include guided solutions and multimedia learning aids to give students the extra help they need.

Visit www.mymathlab.com for more information or go directly to www.coursecompass.com to purchase immediate access to MyMathLab and MyStatLab with your instructor’s CourseID.

2.0 out of 5 stars access code not provided, Sep 1 2009

By Maureen E. Schwartz - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Mymathlab -- Standalone Access Card (Misc. Supplies)

I purchased this book/online program for my sophomore college student daughter. The book came on time, but the access code to the online program was already used and this was not disclosed to me when I purchased it. Why would I purchase a computer program if it is invalid and we can't get on line? The professor uses this program in his class because going on line for assignments is a REQUIREMENT of the class.
Buyers beware! I have requested help with the refund policy and I'm awaiting a response.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY, Jan 15 2011

By Casi - Published on Amazon.com

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Mymathlab -- Standalone Access Card (Misc. Supplies)

I bought the access code from Amazon thinking I could trust them to give me the correct product, as I am an avid Amazon fan. However, the code was invalid. After sitting on the phone with Pearson (who runs MyMathLab) for almost an hour, they finally told me they couldn't do anything for me because it was a made up code. Whether it really is made up or just an expired one, I really don't know. Amazon was nice enough to overnight me a replacement, only for me to be told it too was invalid.

My professor warned us not to purchase them off the internet and I learned the hard way to listen to him. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else!

1.0 out of 5 stars Useless tech support, Jan 24 2010

By James Gerhart "Please burn this book" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Mymathlab -- Standalone Access Card (Misc. Supplies)

Lets face it, the only reason you'll buy this is because you're being bent over the barrel by your college's math department. The publisher of this product knows this full well and their tech support department takes it into account when dealing with you.

When my copy of this product arrived I tried to use the code to register in my course, but MyMathLab said the code was "not found." I double checked everything and finally called tech support, who made up about 6 different excuses to simply get me off the line. Next, they said to contact Amazon because the kit was from a third party and that instead I should purchase a key from them - for $77. I refused and told them this product was clearly from their company and should give me access to MyMathLab as it was advertised, but failing that they should tell me exactly what the key was for.

The customer service agent finally said they would send the key to "tier two support" who would help me "soon." Two days later they hadn't contacted me through email, as was promised, so I called the customer support line again. The representative only said that tier two would be in contact with me "soon" and that they had no specific time, but again offered to sell me a key over the phone.

It has now been two weeks without hearing from "tier two support" and I had to buy an access code directly from the publisher, which is exactly what the company wanted. Thankfully Amazon was great about accepting the return.

This issue reflects very poorly on Addison-Wesley and Pearson Education, but frankly, they have no reason to be helpful. If you've purchased this product it's because you're forced to and if the code doesn't work, your only other courses of action involve either dropping or failing the course. Good luck with that.
