About CollegeScope
CollegeScope® is an interactive online student success textbook. Designed for a first-year college success course, it is effective for any student or group of students to increase their success in college and beyond.
Students and faculty use CollegeScope over the internet via secure individual accounts. Students work through chapters which include activities, journals, quizzes, links to videos and external resources and custom links to resources chosen by the school.
The first chapter has assessments for personality type, work values, work interests, multiple intelligences and self-efficacy. The personality type and multiple intelligences assessments also include comprehensive reports independent of the chapters.
Students establish awareness of their traits early in the program, so they can think about and complete activities based on individual strengths and challenges – making the program personalized.
CollegeScope also includes a complete career information database with hundreds of career profiles and bright outlook projections. This allows students to make career planning decisions based on their assessment results and, in turn, major and program selections based on informed career plans.
