    No astronomy case studies in volume 2?

  2. Two slots were assigned for Mastering products. And since science examples are well represented, we went with one science and one engineering example. The point of Pan Pearson Making the Grade brochure is to showcase a variety of products to Deans and Presidents. We provide different brochures and website links to individual faculty.

  3. Do you plan on doing any on MyWritingLabPlus? I'm not sure how many folks are using it, but we'd love to see it, especially if schools have been using it longer than a year.

  4. Brooke, we have a school using MyWritingLabsPlus and when we update their case study, we'll include that information. This should occur at some point next year.
