Trained by thousands of higher education faculty and hundreds of college students to ensure accuracy and academic integrity, the Student Assistant leverages intelligent language models, and exclusive Cengage content, focusing the technology on a specific title within our Cengage portfolio. The AI higher education tool guides students through the process of thinking critically, allowing them to reach the answers without outside assistance.
New enhancements to the Student Assistant increase accessibility, improve navigation and provide instructors with deeper insights into student engagement and progress.
The Student Assistant empowers your students to confidently and independently address learning gaps on their own schedule, reducing the need for additional guidance from you. It only uses trusted Cengage resources — never pulling from external sources on the web — ensuring all content is accurate, private, unbiased and fully aligned with the course materials you assign.
The new Instructor Assistant offers you timely and actionable insights into your students' performance. You get class-level summaries that identify common challenges at a glance and suggest ideas for the next class meeting. You can also access individual student insights to identify students who need help and get plans to support their needs.
