Cengage Learning is a leading provider of innovative teaching, learning, technology, services, and research solutions for the academic student (K-12 and higher education), and teaching professional. They provide exceptional published materials, course-driven digital solutions, and personalized solutions to accelerate student engagement and reconstruct a student’s learning experience. Cengage has a few goals that sit high above the rest of their list. They want students to be engaged (as it almost always ensures success and they believe engagement is the foundation of learning), they want to improve learning outcomes, and they want students to achieve their education goals, fostering academic excellence. After all, ‘engage’ is part of their name. Cengage Learning is dedicated to helping students in whatever ways they can (which are many) and they truly care about students’ futures.
Of course, Cengage Learning is known for their varied textbook titles and library resources. However, they are so much more than publishers. They offer an abundance of tools and resources, all for the benefit of students and their educators, so that they can work together in sync. Cengage Learning provides integrated learning solutions that bridge from the library to the classroom. Some of their offerings include: Engaging Minds (see below); Live Events: Cengage Learning’s live events are awesome. They’re for educators, offering an excellent opportunity to gather together with authors, colleagues, thought leaders and staff. Educators can immerse themselves in topics such as strengthening student engagement, improving learning outcomes, teaching using the most effective practices, and many other important subjects relating to students and their education. They will also divulge information regarding cutting-edge online offerings. Their events are engaging (of course) and inspiring; Virtual events: Live streaming videos, lectures, skill-boosting webinars, and interactive workshops are part of this section of Cengage Learning’s website. Topics and technology will be taught in, as Cengage always does, engaging ways (hope you see the pattern here… always about being engaged); Conventions: They keep up-to-date on education by attending and exhibiting at hundreds of conferences and conventions each year, and they are committed to being in the know.
