Cengage – Cashback, Rebates & Rewards

Since 2020. As for this entry, I am going to mention the brightest aspects of Cengage, Pricing, Study Tools (Book as well), Tests & Quizzes, Mobility inside the web, Security, Customer Service, Longevity of its Servers; and an overall feeling of my experience with Cengage amongst other study tools that I have been asked to use. Pricing; In my experience, around computer applications, and other finance courses, Cengage has offered me a fee of around $50-120, and that gives you a dual access to the book and all the tests and revisions/examples. My course at the moment offers a link to all the tests, so I can access the tests for free, and I managed to get the book somewhere else. Price wise, the service would be pretty good if you were not forced to pay for it for college. Study Tools; In Cengage, you are offered so many tools, and I don't necessarily remember all of them. They've got highlighting, flashcards, custom revisions, book-search, and other fancy tools that if you learnt how to use, it would be like having Microsoft Word but online. The book itself is also pretty easy to navigate through. Test & Quizzes: Most importantly, nearly every question will have a 'show me how', which is a short video of another good instructor solving a very similar question to the one you are currently at. and most of them, if not all, are with English subtitle as well. If you buy the book, you might get access to more than just the tests, but also countless sets of revisions that are not graded but you can use if you needed to improve in a certain chapter or aspect of the course. Cengage gives you the ability to have a complex set of quizzes related to business administration especially, since it is what I am familiar with in Cengage. Which makes studying online on point. Mobility: Pretty easy as to how you can get familiar with the book and how everything is organized, going back and forth from quizzes to chapters is pretty easy as well. Sometimes you are limited the access from getting into the book the same time as you are solving a final, and that might be because you have two Cengage's open at the same time. Security: I would say the site is pretty secure, it has been 3 years for me and I have never encountered any malware that I am aware of. Also, the site uses multiple stages of security, but always remember to delete your credit card's info from any site you are freshly using. Customers' Service: I have came to need them multiple times, because of an issue that Cengage did not recognize my account as a member even after I had paid, and that was because the account I registered with was different from my account on my college's portal, which of course limits me from accessing the tests and creates two separate identities on Cengage. They were very helpful each time I had an enquiry, and when the issue remained for a couple of days, I had my instructor filled in, and it was not a problem for me afterwards. Longevity of its servers: Very rare maintenance periods. Overall, these study tools could take some time from you to understand or even set up, and that lost time might affect your start of the semester/course, if that happens just make sure to contact Cengage and your instructor, and do not feel stressed as you could have been delayed by anything else, so just stay calm and drink some coffee and do what you can Papi. And btw these kind of tools -whether Cengage or another site that gives you the ability to have detailed quizzes online,- are a very nice touch. Anyways, good luck everyone!

I have found that Cengage textbooks do offer a good overview of topics. I have had mixed reviews from my students how used Mindtap in the classroom as problems with tech support and integrating it with the LMS have been noted.

I enjoy this community because it allows me to share ideas with other colleagues. At the same time I learn from them and them me.

Cengage staff are personable, knowledgeable, and timely. We are off to a great start for our FA22 semester because Cengage staff demonstrate exceptional customer service and resources are reliable and well-organized. We can't thank CENGAGE enough for the support and encouragement. Fall 2022....LET'S DO THIS!

I've had a great experience using Cengage and MindTap. It took a little bit to figure out customization on late policies and due dates but it really is a breeze to set up. I've also gotten great feedback from my students on how beneficial the videos are as well as being able to see the solutions for problems as they go.
