Features
Below are the key features and benefits of MyITLab for Office 2010 and MyITLab for Office 2007.
Assessment and Training Content Matches Your Textbook
Train your students on the exact same projects, activities, skills, and methods found in your and series textbooks -- and use two alternative assessment scenarios for quizzes, pre- and post-tests, and finals
Project-Based and Skill-Based Assessment and Training
With MyITLab, you can test and train students on entire projects just like in your textbook or you can break down assignments into individual Office Application skills.
Realistic Assessment
MyITLab offers you two alternative assessment scenarios for each hands-on project in your textbook so you can use one scenario for a pre-test or quiz and the other for a mid-term or final.
A realistic, open simulation of Microsoft Office allows students to complete an activity exactly as it is taught in the textbook or by using any method the actual Office applications will accept.
Students can explore and navigate the Office applications without penalty unless they commit to an incorrect action.
Outcomes-Based Training
MyITLab’s outcomes-based training is self-paced and adaptable to each student’s skill level.
Students no longer have to re-train on skills they already know. They can apply and prove their skills, ask for a hint, or watch a multimedia “Show me” demonstration.
Customized Study Plans
In MyITLab you have the option of combining exams and training into complete, customized Study Plans. You select the path and how your students will proceed. For example you can assign a Pre-Test that leads to Training only on the activities a student missed, then on to a Post-Test.
Live-in-the-application project grading tool: Grader
With Grader, instructors can assign projects that students will complete live in Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access, and then submit for immediate grading by the MyITLab grading engine.
The projects are taken from End of Chapter content and Instructor Resources for the GO!, Exploring, and Skills for Success Series textbooks.
eText
MyITLab includes a complete eText that allows students to highlight, search, and take notes as they read online.
Now also available on the iPad! Click here to access your Pearson eText app for the iPad.
Advanced Reporting
MyITLab's advanced reporting capabilities, including detailed student click-stream data, let you see exactly what actions your students completed click-by-click, for true defensible grading.
In addition, you can run a number of activity reports for single or multiple students, assignments, and sections. You can even run frequency analysis reports, Study Plan reports, and create certificates of completion.
All reports can be customized, exported, and saved to My Reports for easy access.
Full-Functioning Gradebook
A full-functioning gradebook will let you manage all of your course grades in one place. Import/export from popular learning management systems, manipulate and modify individual student grades, and even calculate final grades.
Powerful Administration
Powerful program administrator features allow you to create and manage course templates and course sections, and to manage users, including students.
You can also assign permissions to instructors and teaching assistants (or adjuncts), allowing them just the control they need.
Built in Communication
MyITLab offers a complete email and announcement functionality so you can communicate with just one student, a specific section or your entire course roster.
Communication & Collaboration Tools
Instructors and students can collaborate via online chat, voice chat, video conferencing, and application sharing
