MindTap Programming for Farrell's Programming Logic and Design, 9th Edition is an online learning solution designed to help students master the skills they need in today’s workforce. Research shows employers need critical thinkers, troubleshooters and creative problem-solvers to stay relevant in our fast paced technology-driven world. MindTap helps you achieve this with assignments and activities that are tied to learning objectives and provide real-life relevance. Hands-on labs designed to teach users to write and run code are now seamlessly integrated into MindTap so there is no installation or plugins, allowing students to code directly in the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) from their web browser. Powered by artificial intelligence, a chatbot provides hints and feedback when students get stuck, which encourages persistence through point-of-need support. For instructors, MindTap provides benefits and support including automatic grading, analytics and LMS integration with full flexibility to tailor a course. Readings and “Whiteboard Shorts” support the lecture, while RSS Feed assignments offer a deeper dive into the topics. Pre- and post- course assessments allow you to measure how much students have learned using analytics and reporting that makes it easy to see where the class stands in terms of progress, engagement and completion rates. Use the content and learning path as-is or pick and choose how our material will wrap around yours. You control what the students see and when they see it.
