Connect gives students access to videos, text materials, and supplemental activities that are useful in helpful the students learn the course material. I have also used connect as a platform for students to submit course assignments. The assignments have then been synced to Blackboard where once graded in Connect the grade is pulled into the students Blackboard grade book. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about McGraw-Hill Connect? There are times where Connect has technical issues. This can be especially difficult if it occurs when the students have to submit an assignment. The other problem is that as an instructor, you cannot see what the students do in Connect. You have to call the Gcgraw Hill team and ask to see if they can see what the student might have attempted. Even then, they may say that they do not see a student attempt on content whereas the student says that they attempted the content in Connect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering McGraw-Hill Connect: This is a good text supplement and integrates well with Blackboard. It provides students with additional optional content and can offer the option of assignment submission as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is McGraw-Hill Connect solving and how is that benefiting you? Supplemental text material and course assignment submission. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Connect because my students feel it is a good way to learn and review the course materials. I also very much appreciate the smooth communication between Moodle and Connect; the link from Moodle straight to the web page, and the syncing of grades.

I used McGraw-Hill connect for an online course I took in graduate school. I like the navigation and easy-to-understand menu options.It also helped me keep everything in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about McGraw-Hill Connect? Some of the picture icons on the left were not intuitive.

It is easy to use when I use it in my mentoring sessions to help students solve questions and work for their grade. At UTA I use it in my mentoring classes of around 1000 students and it is really easy to add courses and make changes to the course material I add to it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I have an easy way to see my students' progress and thought processes with an easy way to give real time assistance to specific problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about McGraw-Hill Connect? The Connect website is not quite user friendly yet. It's a tedious process to copy homework to different classes and also the customized homework options are a bit limited to be of use. Especially the Excel portions. I must warn McGraw Hill about the direction it's heading. At first, McGraw Hill showed us a great way to grade students' homework and monitor their progress while giving great feedback. However, as of late, I'm noticing that McGraw Hill is more concerned about marketing and ensuring more sales are made. I understand the importance of this, but at the same time, the IT group needs to be proactive in improving features that are important to the instructors, but not quite sales builders. For example, statistics tracking of students (more depth than the current Insight Reports), smoothing out the communication of points to Blackboard, allowing more freedom to customize Excel problems, and creating a forwarding option for students to email the instructor to a specific email address with a screenshot of the problem they're asking about. Stay relevant by keeping the instructors happy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is McGraw-Hill Connect solving and how is that benefiting you?

I love how engaged students are, how easy it is to set up with Blackboard, and how great the reports are. I can see students that are at risk and address the issue before they get too far behind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about McGraw-Hill Connect? Some small things that would make the experience better would be being able to assign several learnsmarts in one step. Question editing remained very cumbersome and I often "broke" the questions when I adjusted number of labels given to students. That needs to improve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering McGraw-Hill Connect: Try it and get McGraw-Hill do a workshop so you are not lost. Having people show us how to link with Blackboard and how to use the platform was super useful. I would feel very lost without someone showing me how to use it because it is not very intuitive on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is McGraw-Hill Connect solving and how is that benefiting you? McGraw Hill provides lower price for our students since we use their text as a common learning material.

Accounting Instructor Higher Education Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 9/15/2017 "Excellent student and instructor resources" 5/5 What do you like best about McGraw-Hill Connect? Mcgraw-Hill (MH) Connect provides students with multiple ways to study the material. From end-of-chapter assignments to interactive presentations to study tools, instructors can find items that fits different learning styles. I also like that the platform is available 24/7 and across a variety of devices. The assignments in Connect interface flawlessly with the Canvas learning management system (LMS), creating a one sign-on experience for the student. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about McGraw-Hill Connect? The setup of Connect for a new course/textbook can be very time consuming, but once it is set up it can be copied easily to another course section. I also would like to see MH notify students and instructors via email rather than via a website of service interruptions. I would also like to see a more affordable print textbook option for those students that want it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering McGraw-Hill Connect: Utilize the MH experts to help with your implementation. They're easy to work with and will help you make your implementation easier. Allow yourself plenty of time for the initial setup and add as many extra practice tools as you can for your students. Also, be sure students understand how the platform works. Consider doing in-class demos or assigning the videos developed by MH as homework. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is McGraw-Hill Connect solving and how is that benefiting you? Grading is streamlined as assignments can be automatically graded, but the instructor still has the ability to modify grades. Grades are also passed over to our LMS. The students have extra study tools available to them 24/7. The LearnSmart flashcards do increase student success rates. This is my favorite online textbook platform.

Co-Founder, CEO Media Production Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 9/19/2017 "McGraw-Hill Connect User" 5/5 What do you like best about McGraw-Hill Connect? The SMART book feature in CONNECT provides invaluable real time feedback to the students, allowing them self assess their knowledge. The interactive assignments and videos engage the students and help them assimilate complex information. The students actively engage with the content through these interactive materials which helps them understand, rather than just memorize, these physiological processes.

It would be amazing if this learning management system could directly interface with NCSU's moodle learning management system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering McGraw-Hill Connect: CONNECT offers multiple useful features both for the student and the professor. The company will assist you in setting up your course content to ensure your full use of these features.
