Information and point-of-care solutions provider Wolters Kluwer Health, US, has launched Lippincott's CoursePoint, the first fully integrated digital course solution for nursing education. CoursePoint, powered by PrepU ™, combines textbook content, digital and animated support resources, as well as interactive quizzes, assessments and remediation. Beyond just studying, students can test their knowledge using quizzes that continuously adapt based on earlier performance.
Lippincott's CoursePoint is launching in connection with the 13th edition of Wolters Kluwer Health's best-selling Brunner & Suddarth's Textbook of Medical-Surgical Nursing. A complete set of products for the core nursing curriculum will soon follow.
Lippincott's CoursePoint is powered by PrepU, an adaptive learning solution that has been part of Wolters Kluwer Health's nursing course support since 2010. In research that Wolters Kluwer Health conducted with the National Center for Research on Evaluation, Standards and Student Testing at UCLA, PrepU was proven to improve classroom performance and exam passing rates.
CoursePoint also offers instructors a measurable way to assess student understanding, beyond test results. Instructors can collaborate with students at any time, quickly identify common misunderstandings, evaluate student comprehension, and make changes to their instruction to better meet student needs. Instructors can also customise their course solution by adding a variety of other Lippincott products such as printed ancillary titles, Lippincott's DocuCare, an Electronic Health Record solution, or other digital offerings.
