Help students stay engaged and prepare for class with
Freeman's Readiness Readings
Available with our Introducing the Life Sciences course, Scott Freeman’s Readiness Readings are:
Aligned to NSF-funded, nationally endorsed learning objectives. 163 nationally endorsed lesson-level learning objectives provide biology majors with clear expectations of what they should know and be able to do.
Streamlined and written for students. Students read only the content they need for each class session, which reduces their inclination to try to memorize everything.
Active and engaging. Students answer guiding questions while they read and practice metacognition by marking sections clear or muddy.
Customizable. Instructors can customize every element of a Readiness Reading to match exactly what they want to teach.
Assignable. Instructors assign readings for points — making students accountable for reading — and track their progress in the instructor application.
