Exercise Central

Bedford/St. Martin’s Exercise Central has been a longtime favorite of instructors and students who want an effective way to practice building skills that are critical to students’ success as college writers. A bank of Exercise Central quizzes is available in your LaunchPad, allowing you to

• Offer additional interventions based on your students’ diagnostic quiz results
• Assign pre-built exercise sets on the fly, as you notice patterns of error in your students’ writing
• Create and edit custom quizzes that match the needs of your students
• Offer quizzes that allow multiple attempts so that students can continue to practice concepts until they are closer to mastering them
