WileyPLUS with ORION Product Website
WileyPLUS with ORION is adaptive courseware that combines Snapwiz adaptive technology with WileyPLUS content. The product gives students a diagnostic test at the beginning of each chapter, and students can then review content or choose personalized practice questions. The courseware offers dashboards for students and instructors, as well as a “Metacognitive Report” that compares students’ proficiency to their level of confidence. Instructors can use dashboards to group students with similar needs and email students directly, and they can use the courseware when teaching in fully online, blended or face-to-face formats. In addition, Wiley separately sells WileyPLUS Learning Space, a web portal that houses course materials and collaborative tools.
Snapwiz’s adaptive functionality considers factors such as learner confidence level and self-assessments, time to complete learning exercises, performance on questions, mastery of prior learning objectives and elapsed time since last interaction with relevant content. Instructors can add external content, override the courseware’s grading policies, allow students to skip content that the technology does not think the student has mastered, give individual students different assignments, and deviate from the recommended lesson plan.
