A recent study found that college courses with higher student involvement and participation improved academic achievement in science courses, especially among African-American and first-generation college students. In addition, students are asked to complete LearnSmart activities online that go along with the book material. The researchers think that the LearnSmart activities help students significantly, especially in regard to their grade. For example, if someone failed the first exam, but they did all the online activities, they still have a C in the class, rather than an F.
