Providing actionable feedback

The role of feedback in promoting successful learning outcomes is well documented. Research indicates that the most effective feedback is specific to the particular task at hand, provides concrete information on how the student is performing, and shows how each task will connect to subsequent content.

Aligned with these best practices, MyLab Statistics bolsters student performance via two types of feedback:

  • Immediate feedback, provided upon completion of every individual practice problem, enables students to adjust their approach and learn from each item before moving to the next.
  • Delayed feedback, provided after each MyLab Statistics assessment has been completed in full, helps students retain key information.

By providing feedback as needed throughout the learning process, MyLab Statistics helps students make steady progress through assignments and achieve mastery over time.
