MasteringPhysics® from Pearson Education has been designed and refined with a single pur-pose in mind: to help educators create that moment of understanding with their stu-dents. The Mastering online homework and tutoring system delivers self-paced tutorials that provide individualized coaching, focus on your course objectives, and are responsive to each stu-dent’s progress. The Mastering system helps instructors maximize class time with customizable, easy-to-assign, and automatically graded assessments that motivate students to learn outside of class and arrive prepared for lecture. MasteringPhysics is available for the following Physics courses: Phys 1050, Phys 1080 (we provide MasteringAstronomy), Phys 1250/1260, and Phys 2350/2360.

MasteringPhysics provides the following:

  1. J ust-in-time math remediation
  2. Conceptual as well as quantitative understanding
