Use Any Device
Students and instructors can access the Aktiv Learning app from any iPhone, iPad, or Android device. Plus, the platform is fully accessible online with any Mac, PC, or Chromebook. Aktiv Chemistry’s mobile-first design ensures that students receive the same experience no matter where they are.
Gradebook & LMS Integration
Aktiv Chemistry’s gradebook can be synced with nearly any LMS such as Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, or D2L. The gradebook and associated columns can be customized to separate the various assignment types, to present individual assignments, or display summary columns for each type.
Every Aktiv Chemistry activity has a multitude of grading policies that can be customized depending on the assignment type. Settings include points per problem, participation credit, late submissions with penalties, variable attempts per problem, penalties for incorrect attempts, and more.
Algorithmic Problems & Question Pools
Aktiv Chemistry offers additional security with both Question Pools and Algorithmic Problems. These features randomize the content that is delivered to each student during homeworks, quizzes, or exams. Instructors can also randomize the order of questions on any assignment.
With Algorithmic Problems, built-in variables create thousands of question variants to be delivered that randomize numbers, words, or compounds within the problem statement. With Question Pools, instructors can group together a set of similar questions and deliver a subset of them at random to students.
Question Authoring
The authoring tool allows instructors to easily write, save, and assign your own questions with targeted instructional feedback. Input superscripts, subscripts, and special symbols with ease.
Targeted Student Feedback
Every Aktiv Chemistry question contains targeted instructional feedback that provides students with helpful hints when they submit incorrect answers. When students run out of attempts, they are presented with a step-by-step detailed solution that fully explains how to solve the problem.
Attendance
Our attendance tool allows instructors to easily take student attendance by randomizing a check in code for each class. Customize timing to have a strict or lenient lateness policy.
Top Hat & OpenStax Textbook Integration
Aktiv is proud to be a partner of OpenStax in order to deliver more affordable course materials for chemistry students. Students now have one button access directly to the OpenStax Chemistry, Chemistry Atoms First, and Organic Chemistry textbooks when working on a problem in the platform.
Plus, Aktiv’s groundbreaking platform can now be combined with engaging, dynamic Interactive eTexts from Top Hatfor General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry.
