He presented papers at professional conferences, including the American Educational Research Association (AERA) and the Association for Behavioral Analysis. Dr. Ary taught research design, statistics, measurement, and educational psychology, first at Indiana University, then at Northern Illinois University, where he was director of the Educational Psychology and Special Education Research Office and interim chair of the Department of Educational Psychology, Counseling, and Special Education.

Review

"I was awed because so many of my students earned an 'A' or 'A-' on the final exam. And students gave the MindTap intro class higher ratings than they gave my traditional intro class. I'm convinced that the higher course ratings and grades were, in large part, a result of students' engagement."

"MindTap definitely helped students be more prepared for lectures, because they engaged with the content before they came to class."

"There is a clear connection between those who are doing very well in the class and those who are enrolled in MindTap. They are paying better attention to deadlines and planning better for their semester. Those using MindTap regularly are definitely more engaged."

"Once I started using MindTap I loved it. In fact, the students had so much success with it I actually expanded my pilot project, and I now use it in all of my classes."
