To help students utilize Textbook Projects fully, a new SAM icon is now embedded in the readings. The icon indicates when a student should download their files from SAM or MindTap to start a Textbook Project, and when they should upload their completed Textbook Project for instantaneous grading and feedback. There are also new SAM End-of-Module Projects, which are based on the Independent Challenges found in each module and offer full auto grading.
