STM publisher Elsevier has announced the commercial launch of its new English language medical exam preparation and simulation tool, ExamPrep, across UK, Northern Europe and EMEA-LA.
In collaboration with Learning Objects, Inc., a leader in social software for learning, ExamPrep uses the latest adaptive technology to pre-test learners to formulate individual benchmarks. ExamPrep then presents questions and remediation content from Elsevier's most trusted sources – including Kumar & Clark's Cases in Clinical Medicine, Medical Sciences, and Gray's Anatomy for Students – based on their progress and performance. Students can also create their own learning plan, actively involving and engaging them in their own performance and development, as it moves them through their revision to achieve exam success.
At an institutional level ExamPrep allows faculty to create assignments from an extensive bank of questions or create questions with an author questioning tool. ExamPrep also provides analytics that enables faculty to monitor students' progress, assess exam readiness, identify topics that require further review and potentially adjust their teaching to deliver improved learning outcomes.
Incorporating Learning Objects' Difference Engine, Elsevier built ExamPrep on an adaptive assessment algorithm that takes into account learner mastery and established learning science.
Available offline and device agnostic, ExamPrep is just one of the many learning tools from Elsevier that supports the learning of tomorrow's doctors and healthcare professionals. ExamPrep is an English language eProduct available in the UK, Northern Europe and will roll out in EMEA-LA later this year.
