Courses updates

Physics

We offer new physics courses. Our statics and dynamics materials are now available.

Python

We have improved our Python course, which teaches fundamental programming concepts. It is a good fit for students who wish to either pursue or transition to a technical university or college-level degree.

Basic Math improvements

We have added new exercises and adjusted our French, English, and Dutch course to be suitable for color-blind people.

Basic Math in Spanish

Our most successful course, Basic Math, is now available in Spanish. ¡Hola!


Product updates

Adaptability mode

Our adaptive systems work by analyzing the student’s performance and, subsequently, making the material harder or more accessible. This feature adapts the path learners take through the content so that it fits their levels. Students first have a diagnostic test that determines their proficiency in the given section. Then, exercises are adjusted to them.

This feature is available for: Basic Math, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Calculus for Social Sciences, and Financial Arithmetic.

Prerequisites

Prerequisites are a way for teachers to create dependencies within the content. Therefore, the content stays locked until its dependencies are fulfilled. This feature will help you ensure your students master the materials before moving forward.

QR upload

Now students can easily upload files with their phones by scanning a QR code.

Safe Exam Browser

Our Safe Exam Browser is a web browser environment to carry out e-assessments safely. It limits your students to just the test page, so they can’t click around and visit any other websites during the test.

Spanish as the platform language

We want to keep reaching out to sizeable non-English speaking markets in their mother tongue. This year, we have added Spanish as a platform language.

Video Explanations

We have started integrating videos into our Basic Math theory pages. Now, students can watch short tutorials where our education experts explain how to solve common problems aligned with their curriculum.

You can watch these explanations on SOWISO Explains, our new YouTube channel. At the end of each video, we propose a related exercise that students can do on our platform for free via a link. Our randomization feature allows students to solve new problems and continually develop their skills.
