WebTutor:
No two students have identical study needs. That's why WebTutor Advantage is so valuable.  It focuses on individual study efforts where they're needed most. This Web-based product reviews critical text material chapter-by-chapter. Concepts are reinforced through PowerPoint presentations, on-line videos, exercises, problems, cases, flashcards, self-tests, and other online resources.

Students struggling with a particular problem can access hints and tips to expand their understanding of the concepts. In addition, all department assessment activities will take place in CengageNOW, so it is important to register your product.  Click here for handout on registering and click here for handout on taking assignments in CengageNOW.
