Over 30 essays of varying difficulty provide a faculty-view of content broken down by reading level to ensure instructors can meet students’ current skill level with opportunities for growth. Each section includes auto-graded assessments that ask students to engage with each reading, and all questions include student-facing explanations to help them understand the correct answers.
