Features and Benefits

Students can explore important sociological concepts, by watching relevant television news stories, listening to interviews with prominent researchers and social scientists, reading current newspaper articles, viewing animations of important data, and performing other hands-on activities.

Google Maps allow students to see and analyze a wealth of data.
Self-Assessment: Instructors need to regularly assess whether students understand the material and concepts in their textbook. MySocLab allows students to test themselves and aggregate class reports help instructors know what content their class has mastered and where they are still struggling.
Customized Study Plan: Generated by self-assessments, MySocLab produces customized study plans for students and addresses different learning styles while helping students to study independently. It identifies areas of weakness and strength to focus students' attention and efforts where they are needed the most.
A wealth of instructor support material simplifies and enriches the teaching experience. MySocLab gives you access to text-specific materials including instructor's manuals, test banks, and PowerPoint presentations. Having all of these resources in one place makes preparing for class quick and easy.
