HALLMARK FEATURES OF MyAccountingLab

MyAccountingLab® is web-based tutorial and assessment software for accounting that not only gives students more "I Get It" moments, but gives instructors the flexibility to make technology an integral part of their course, or a supplementary resource for students.

MyAccountingLab provides students with sample tests that they can work through on their own. These diagnostic tests allow them to identify areas they have not fully understood so they can study efficiently. The sample tests generate personalized study plans focusing only on the areas that the student has not yet mastered.

Learning tools such as Help Me Solve It, DemoDocs, Student PowerPoints, Glossary Flashcards, and more provide students with guidance to re-capture the "I Get It" moment they had in class.

New material added to MyAccountingLab includes

• Conceptual mini cases place theory into practice. Supporting exercises feed into students' gradebook.
• New Animations add a dynamic perspective to figures in the text.
• New eText allows students to highlight passages, take notes online, and bookmark key pages for easy review.
• Video interviews linked to Financial Statements included in the text bring these Annual Reports to life.
• MyAccountingLab now offers both algorithmic and static versions of exercises and problems to allow instructors to assign the same questions with the same values to all students or to allow for algorithmic versions with different values, as desired.
• Mac compatible and will support Firefox and Safari browsers.
• Faculty now able to adjust tolerance levels for questions.

2009 Student Survey at Vancouver Island University:

What effect did MAL have on your grade?
57% Improved my grade
29% Significantly improved my grade

Sample student comments:

"The sample tests are very helpful, if I'm not really sure if I understand the homework I can go test myself and see if I did retain the information."

"This helped me solve problems and it was very very helpful. It helped me if I was lost on what I was suppose to do. A very good guidance."
