It follows the syllabus guide beautifully; very user-friendly for students. Lots of interactive sections, plus good questions for extra practice – whether assigned by me or for independent study.

I have been teaching for 40 years and Kognity is the best teaching aide I have ever used. The assignments are excellent. I’m 100% certain that it helps every single one of my Biology students. Wish it had been around in 1979!

Kognity does much more than a textbook. It’s a hugely powerful resource.
