Learning reimagined

Revel™ is a dynamic, mobile reading experience that drives engagement and preparedness. Reimagined content for most humanities and social science courses and titles includes embedded interactives that bring the discipline to life. 

Our strategy for empowering learners starts with a deep understanding of the learning sciences. Read more about the learning science behind Revel.

Anytime/anywhere learning

With the Revel mobile app from Pearson, your students can access course materials on their tablet or mobile phone, so they can learn on the go — without breaking their stride.

When paired with Revel, voice-activated technology gives your students the option to learn on their terms. It makes it easy to check assignment due dates, and even listen to the text via their Amazon Alexa-enabled or Google Assistant-enabled devices. View our on-demand webinar about enhancing student learning with voice technology.

“I really appreciate the option to listen to the textbook being read. I am dyslexic and this really helps me focus and retain the information better. I used to prefer physical textbooks, because I am a bit old fashioned; however once I discovered the audio feature I was hooked on Pearson [Revel].”
