For each chapter, the Companion Website provides a Pre-Test that gives students instant feedback; a Chapter Guide that directs students to tutorials, animations, activities, and web links; access to myeBook; and a Post-Test with a Study Plan. The Second Edition features new key content and online activities as well as expanded online assessment that makes it easier than ever for students to master the material and for instructors to assess student progress. For a complete online course available through CourseConnect, a Get Ready for A&P Online Course is also available (www.pearsonls.com/getready).
