Achieve College Physics with Prelectures combines a robust physics assessment system with tutorials that help students grasp essential topics before class.
The Achieve question bank features over 3,000 questions—including conceptual, computational, graphing, and symbolic questions—that test a range of skills and topics in algebra-based physics. Each question comes with hints, answer-specific feedback, and fully-worked solutions, to coach students toward understanding core physics principles and applications.
Developed by Todd Ruskell using the framework from the University of Illinois, the Achieve Prelecture videos were designed using education research to present topics in an easy-to-understand way, leading to increased overall perception of the course and student performance.
Prelecture videos and Bridge questions prepare students for more meaningful class time and give instructors insights into students’ conceptual strengths and weaknesses, allowing them to address misconceptions or tailor lecture time appropriately.
Achieve College Physics with Prelectures can be paired with a Macmillan textbook, OpenStax College Physics, or a list of supported textbooks. Instructors can save time with grading while maintaining flexibility with our custom question authoring tool, and intuitive course management features.

Todd Ruskell
As a Teaching Professor of Physics at the Colorado School of Mines, Todd G. Ruskell focuses on teaching at the introductory level, and continually develops more effective ways to help students learn. One method used in large enrollment introductory courses is Studio Physics. This collaborative, hands-on environment helps students develop better intuition about, and conceptual models of, physical phenomena through an active learning approach. Dr. Ruskell brings his experience in improving students’ conceptual understanding to the text, as well as a strong liberal arts perspective. Dr. Ruskell’s love of physics began with a B.A. in physics from Lawrence University in Appleton, Wisconsin. He went on to receive an M.S. and Ph.D. in optical sciences from the University of Arizona. He has received awards for teaching excellence, including Colorado School of Mines’ Alumni Teaching Award. Dr. Ruskell currently serves on the physics panel and advisory board for the NANSLO (North American Network of Science Labs Online) project.
