Students use proven learning practices in Codon’s Study Path
What makes the Study Path effective?
Metacognition
New college students need support developing this essential cognitive skill.
Throughout the system, students flag whether they feel a concept is "muddy" or "clear". In Codon’s Study Path, they keep working on the muddy questions until they fully understand the material.
Transparency through alignment
Many students struggle to interpret instructor expectations, often raising the question "Will this be on the exam?"
Practice in Codon’s Study Path is organized by topic and learning objective, not by assignment, to emphasize clear connections between each assessment and your learning objectives.
Structure and progress tracking
Students often don't know where to start when they sit down to study.
Codon’s Study Path adds structure to the post-class stage of the learning cycle. Students work through rounds of practice with new questions in each checkpoint. They visually track their progress as they move topic cards to unlock a practice test.
Self-testing and immediate feedback
Students often default to passive learning techniques that may have worked for them in high school.
The Study Path promotes active learning outside of class through self-testing and immediate response-specific feedback.
