McGraw-Hill Higher Education, a division of The
McGraw-Hill Companies Inc. (MHP) and Blackboard
Inc. (BBBB), a worldwide leader in enterprise technology
and innovative solutions, have joined hands to offer students and
faculty a single destination for online courses, content and
learning tools. The alliance will use McGraw-Hill's
Connect and Create and Blackboard Learn's Release
9.1 to form the platform.
The platform will significantly improve faculty and students'
workflows through a single account. Users will be able to smoothly
navigate McGraw-Hill learning resources that come under the purview
of the Blackboard Learn Platform. The platform will also feature
automatic grade synchronization, which will automatically record
all McGraw-Hill assignment scores in the Blackboard gradebook.
The platform will facilitate instructors with easy access to
content and tools as well as students' performance from
McGraw-Hill's learning resources, including eTexts, video and
interactive exercises. Moreover, preparing assignments will also be
made easy through online access.
The McGraw-Hill Education segment is one of the leading global
educational publishers. The segment includes two operating groups:
the School Education Group (SEG) serving the elementary and high
school (elhi) markets; and the Higher Education, Professional and
International (HPI) Group serving college, professional,
international, and adult education markets. The segment publishes
textbooks for schools, colleges, and professional purposes
worldwide.
Prior to this, McGraw-Hill Professional, a division of
McGraw-Hill Companies announced its coalition with
Simbionix, which provides medicinal edification and simulation
technology to medical professionals.
The coalition will help assimilate visual and scientific
teaching materials from AccessSurgery, McGraw-Hill Professional's
online surgical training source, into Simbionix's MentorLearn. This
will improve simulation-based learning and shore up surgical
novelty and practice.
The alliance will also enhance McGraw-Hill Professional's
current erudition tools for surgical residents and medical
scholars. At the same time, Simbionix will be evolving as the
comprehensive education solution provider in medical field.
Currently, we have a long-term Neutral rating on McGraw-Hill,
which competes with Pearson plc (PSO).
Moreover, the company holds a Zacks #3 Rank, which translates into
