“McGraw Hill's Connect for Raven's Biology has been a terrific resource for online teaching. I find the Smartbook readings and assignments very helpful for my students' learning. My students really like the practice quizzes and I find Connect prepares my students thoroughly for assessments in my course. I have found Connect's virtual labs to be a lifesaver during this pandemic since I can only teach online and am not able to conduct face to face experiments with my students. I highly recommend McGraw Hill's Connect”
