Biosciences

Summatic helps students learn core Bioscience courses with authentic questions and interactive graphical explanations. When you assign a Summatic assessment, you are asking questions very similar to what you would ask on paper, but with automatic marking of student answers, and with more opportunities for students to learn independently.

Features

Assessments and Analytics

Summatic’s assessments challenge students to answer authentic Bioscience questions. Automated grading and analytics keep departments up to date with student progress.

Interactive Resoures

Summatic’s interactive learning aids bring Bioscience to life, allowing students to visualize complex concepts interactively.

Efficient Learning Loops

Random question variants and instant feedback on attempts help students to progress, ensure they can successfully complete a question before moving on.

Courses

Quantitative Skills

Preparation and Regular Assessments

Ensure incoming students have the necessary quantitative skills to start strong. Regular term time assessments then maintain progress.

Interactive Textbook

A full textbook of relevant materials is provided, with interactive content to explain and simplify quantitative concepts.

Course Coverage

The course takes students all the way from GCSE Maths revision to a first year Bioscience course, including optimization and statistical analysis.

Statistical Methods for Research

Full Worked Problems

Unlike other online solutions which ask simple multiple choice questions, Summatic asks multi-part questions where students go through the steps to solve an extended problem.

Dataset Generation

The platform generates random datasets for students to analyse in their software of choice. This gives students extensive practice in applying scientific techniques to data.

Course Coverage

The course gives textbook-aligned question coverage of all common topics in intermediate Biosciences, helping students to have a full theoretical and practical grounding in Research Methods.

We ran a diagnostic with the Economics department for 850 incoming students, which received 91% engagement, helped students to practice and learn required prerequisite material, and gave the department detailed analytics on a large cohort which had not done external A Level exams.
