Overview
The virtual textbook within Kaplan's Standardized Learning Platform allows students to read and interact with the course books online. Previously, students used physical books or PDFs to read and work on practice problems associated with each chapter.
This project aimed to incorporate the reading experience into their on-demand course and enable students to work on practice problems alongside the chapter. Students can also see explanations related to each problem and search the book for keywords.
The Problem
How might we make course readings and practice problems more accessible within the Standardized Learning Platform?
Impact
The virtual textbook has been incorporated into Kaplan's engineering, medical, and nursing on-demand courses.
