ChemVantage
ChemVantage was founded in 2010 on the idea that the most effective learning takes place during repeated intermittent engagement with the subject material. By offering several kinds of online assignments, we help you challenge students to
- prepare themselves in advance for class discussions
- engage with in-class polls using their own phones or laptops (no clickers required)
- apply their new knowledge to solving computer-graded homework problems and get immediate feedback
- work in teams to promote collaborative learning and peer instruction
... all at about 1/10 the cost of our nearest competitor.
ChemVantage is proud to partner with OpenStax, the largest provider of OER textbooks for General Chemistry. We provide tools that are aligned with the OpenStax Chemistry/2e and Chemistry: Atoms First/2e texts, including a new SmartText app that combines reading assignments with adaptive questions covering key concepts in each chapter. This ensures that your students are reading and understanding the content in a timely way. In addition to SmartText, ChemVantage offers
- Placement Exams for initial student advising
- Homework assignments
- Online Quizzes
- Video Lectures on Key Concepts
- In-class Polls to support group work and peer instruction
- Practice Exams to help students prepare for your exams
ChemVantage is free for instructors, and registration is free. Student licenses can be purchased
- individually, by the student, for $2/month or $8/semester
- by the institution in bulk for $5/student for 12 month subscriptions
