Meet MindTap

No matter how you slice it, you have a lot on your plate as a higher ed instructor. You’re often swamped with building assessments, grading homework and worrying about student engagement.

Translation: You struggle to find time to do what you do best — teach.

That’s where MindTap comes in. MindTap is an online learning platform that includes your Cengage eBook. Students can access their full eBook, do their homework, complete assessments and peruse study tools, while you have control over your course delivery.

"MindTap offers transformative learning tools"

It’s not rocket science — when instructors can teach how they want, they share that passion with their students. (Except if you’re teaching Physics. Then, it might actually be rocket science.)

With MindTap, surveyed students saw a 73% boost in confidence, a 15% increase in GPA and a 16% increase in retention.
