“It told me what I did right and wrong and why my answer was right or wrong so I could learn from my mistakes. Gave me lots of practice!”

"It was easy to understand and simple to work through."

"I was able to use it to answer all of my questions."

"I would definitely use it again."

"I liked how it helped me answer my own questions."

"If there was something I was unsure about I would just use the program and my question was answered."

"The experience overall with the program was good and I think that our class enjoyed having the tool."

"Simply put, it was extremely helpful. Thank you!"

"The Quantum Tutors are the greatest thing since sliced bread. I have done a lot of assignments at the university and this is by far the best. In fact, no other way of doing assignments can come even close."

"From looking at the Transaction Analysis Tutor, it's easy to see how it could be beneficial to students. But we put it to the test by conducting a couple of rigorous research studies. These studies show that the Tutor actually does yield highly significant learning effects, in both the statistical and practical sense. Students who use the Quantum Tutors demonstrate far greater gains than students doing comparable homework problems using the textbook or using online homework systems. The research evidence in favor of the Tutors is very persuasive."

"I saw improvement in my students' performance after they used the Quantum Tutors. The students thanked me for referring them to this resource and, when we completed the accounting cycle, asked for additional practice with the Tutors for the remainder of the material. The Tutors allowed students to ask questions and practice at their own pace at home, but with an interaction that is similar to class work and questions. This is very important for introduction to financial accounting classes. This is an excellent product where the available possible questions cover all aspects students might want to ask. In big classes, some students can’t ask questions but with Quantum they were able to and I noticed a difference in their understanding. I enjoyed every aspect of the software! Thank you!"

"Most students study in the evenings, when the walk-in tutoring center or the professor isn't available. Quantum's on-line tutoring program gives students a vital tool that enables students to obtain quality study time outside of the classroom."

"The Tutors give students the opportunity to develop more analytic skills. This, in turn, should improve performance because building a strong foundation is absolutely the key to successfully completing the introductory courses."

"The level of content and feedback is appropriate; I saw the same questions that my students ask in class in the tutorial. I thought somebody had sat in a class and written the questions asked by students."

"I think the Tutors will definitely benefit student understanding. Students will be able to proceed at their own pace, repeat the learning process as often as necessary with feedback appropriate to their increasing understanding, and can use the product as it fits into their own time schedules."

"The University of Toledo stresses a 'Student Centered' focus and providing my students with the Quantum Tutors gives them the right tools for success! I used Homework Manager this year and added the Quantum Tutors about half way through the semester so I could see how they felt about the two systems. While I realize they serve different functions, students were able to compare the two and found Quantum very easy to use - so simple and personal with very appropriately directed answers that are simple and to the point. Students said they also liked the inquiries back from the software asking if they wanted any help. I asked if they would like me to provide this for the class again and I got a resounding 'YES'! They felt it made a difference."

"As the former Director of the Office of Educational Technology at the U.S. Department of Education, I have had the privilege of evaluating many new and evolving technologies. The cognitive learning approach of the Quantum Tutors is by far one of the most advanced and effective educational tools available for self-directed tutoring, homework help and test preparation."

"There is no doubt that the future of education is in increasing personalization of the learning process, and assisting learners within the context in which they are learning. Volumes have been written about the importance of offering contextualized and personalized learning opportunities to students, but Quantum has made these theoretical concepts possible in education and has brought them to the classroom."

"I wish I had this as a student." "This was the dream when CAI began." "Use of AI technology to tailor instruction to the student directly is overwhelmingly terrific." "It came 35 years too late to help me."
