“I received an A in a in accounting because WileyPLUS helped me understand the material by practicing.” “WileyPLUS gave me motivation and confidence.... I ask that my next instructor from AACC uses this system.” “WileyPLUS helped me take a logical approach to answering a problem once the feedback steered me in the right direction.” “It was easier to do my homework problems online and receive quick responses. WileyPLUS helped me understand what I was doing wrong and confirmed what I was doing right.” "I like the wiley plus crossword puzzle and the flash cards. The animated video is nice too. I just wish that we could actually see an instructor doing the problems in front of us. That's the drawback of taking an online course." "Wiley Plus is very helpful. I previously took an Accounting course on-line and it was very difficult and hard to organize the homework given. I highly reccommend keeping Wiley Plus because it has the homework there pre-formated as well as the excel sheets needed to do the record keeping. I previously found it was very time consuming to make the spreadsheet and then enter your answers. Wiley Plus saves us time! Anther advantage is having the book available to view on-line as well. I enjoy the feature that will take you right to the page you need when you need help answering a problem. As far as drawbacks or issues, I haven't run into any as of yet. I think Wiley Plus is a great program and I am excited to have it to help keep me stay organized!" "I believe that Wiley Plus is a decent software program for college students. I find that once you've looked around the sight it is easy to use and understand. I have yet to have a problem with Wiley, my only thing is that excel won't work on any of the 3 computers in my house so I have to do the assignment from scratch on Word Document." "I like how organized Wiley Plus is. All the assignments are readily available and well organized, which makes life so much easier for me. It did take me awhile to figure out how to open up the excel sheet, I actually figured it out by chance. I think even with the professors directions I still had problems. I have also had problems with Wiley Plus closing down on me when I move back and forth through different subject tabs. I think over-all its a great idea it just has a few bugs to work out." "I've been pretty impressed with Wiley Plus." " It has been years since I have taken classes and this program has a lot to offer with the different ways you can learn the content. At first I was very overwhelmed with the whole program, but once I started working with it, I became more comfortable. I don't think I would be getting half as much to "sink in" if I was just reading a text book. "Wiley is a very helpful tool with this class. I feel that I have a tutor when doing the accounting problems. I feel however as I previously stated in the last discussion, that Wiley can also be a disadvantage. When we are doing the problems in Wiley, the program is automatically putting in the dollar signs and the underlines. I feel that if we were new to accounting we might tend to forget to put those important things in when we are doing a test or the working papers problems. Other than that I feel that it is a great program and really helps a lot." "Wiley Plus is an interesting program. I believe it has can be very helpful while taking an online course. It saves you a lot of time and possible mistakes since the proper formats and headings are already predone. Having the option to download the Excel working papers saves me so much time from preparing the spreadsheet. The only thing I dislike about Wiley Plus is that your work has to be done exactly as the program wants it to be. In the real world certain formats might not matter as long as it shows the right numbers." "I like using Wiley Plus I think it's very helpful and easy to navigate through. When doing the chapter questions assignments I like how if you get the answer wrong after 3 trys it shows you the answer and where you went wrong." "Wiley plus is a big help, especially for us online students. All of the exercises and different ways to practice what we learn, like the flashcards and crosswords, are very helpful. I prefer a different kind of learning than just reading a text. Texts tend to get boring and the mind wanders. Also, doing the assignments is like having a teacher right with you telling you if you did it right or not. We don't have to wait until the next class to find out if we did the question right or wrong." "I think that wiley has good points and bad points. I like that it is very neat. You can find things easily. I also like the format how the questions come. The bad thing about the questions is that if you even get one thing wrong the whole question is wrong. It is hard when you have a question with 10 or more answers and you get one little thing wrong and you have to try it again." "I have taken many online courses and Wiley Plus is the best companion site I have used. It is very well organized, and has many great features. The flash cards and the crossword puzzles make studying fun and interesting. The only draw back I have come across, is when doing the homework, there is no place to ask the instructor a question, or leave comments for the professor on specific problems. Another great feature is the ability to print all the forms you need and extras to practice with." "Wiley Plus is a good program to use, especially with a class like accounting, where a lot of hands on work is required. The online system is easy to naviagate and I like that it allows you to see the corresponding text. My only complaint is that it does not really help you when trying t o complete the homework. Every once in awhile you need to see a step by step example and that's not offered with it. I take a math class through Course Compass, and they have more tools that assist you solve the problems." "So far I am happy with wiley plus, but I do not like the fact that after you have attempted the question 3 times and still have parts of it wrong it doesn't give you the correct answer. I think it would be helpful so you can see where you are making a mistake. I also do not like the excel working papers because they confuse me and I end up doing the wrong problem. In wiley plus I do like the fact that you can link to the textbook that is a nice feature." "So far I have seen many advantages to using Wiley plus. I like how the assignments have the problems already formatted and how you find out right away if your answer is correct or not so you have a chance to check it then. The auto grade is nice and also the study material is very helpful. I think it's also beneficial that assignments can still be viewed even after due date is reached. So far I have not noticed any cons."
"I like wiley because this way I know what I have wrong and have a chance to fix it and lurn from my mystakes. I also like knowing what my grade is so I don't have to wait and worrie if I'm passing."
"I have been using wiley plus in evey classroom and its made a world of difference for my students and for me. I think you guys have nailed the online, interactive teaching machine." "I used another text at one point, but with Wiley's wide variety of texts, online learning applications and mentor services I can say without hesitation that they offer the most resources to help me as well as my students.” “One of the best things about Wiley Books, besides the obvious, is the level of service and knowledge my Wiley Rep provides.”
"When I was at school we used the Wiley text, and I find that my best hires are people who have had that shared experience." “Wiley Books are a staple of accounting -- one that I have carried with me from my days as a student and into a career as a working CPA."
