My learners really enjoyed the SAGE Vantage experience. Many of them said it forced them to read, which aided in their comprehension...The feedback I received is that they all really enjoyed the interactive nature of the program, as well as the [number] of activities..., What I most like about Vantage is that my students are coming into class prepared... Student performance after implementing Vantage is incredible. It used to be out of 40 or 50 students, I had 4 or 5 A's... and now instead of having that bulk of grades in the C's, they're in the A's. We know that reading increases performance, but this is a really tangible way to see that., More praise for SAGE Vantage"With Vantage, I set up my course in under 10 minutes, which is unheard of...And it benefitted students, they did all the right things in all the right places. I love Vantage!"
