Chapter Readings (MindTap Reader)


This is the chapter content. All content found in the printed text also lives in the chapter. The Readings in each chapter are presented in manageable “chunks,” with embedded Quick Check Assignments at the end of each Reading section. There are also valuable study tools like highlighting, note taking, dictionary, flashcards, ReadSpeaker, and more.

Readings provide the background information necessary to successfully complete the other assignments, activities and quizzing, providing the student with a complete understanding of concepts.

45 – 60 minutes

Ungraded/ Time on task.

Practice Activities

Specific Chapters (As Applicable), Learning Path

Practice Activities prompt students to apply what they have learned in the unit reading. These require students to complete a worksheet activity.

Application of the reading is an important method of evaluating student comprehension of critical concepts.

Varies by student

Manually graded by instructor.

Simulation Exercises Specific Chapters (As Applicable), Learning Path

Simulation Exercises require students to view a diagram and complete several multiple choice questions based on that diagram. perform a hands-on skill.

Application of learned skills is an important method of evaluating student comprehension of critical concepts.

10-15 Minutes

Auto-Graded

Quiz (CNOW)


Automatically graded additional exam-style questions that test on chapter content. The grade feeds the MindTap gradebook.

Measure how well student mastered the material after completing each MindTap chapter.

Video & Video Library (Media)

In Readings & Learning Path

Video clips are embedded into the readings where applicable. The video library in each section houses the videos that are found within the readings of that section, allowing for quick access to video content.

Videos serve to reinforce what is introduced in the readings. With the addition of the video content, the student is not just reading – he or she is also watching and listening.
