About

Achieve for iOLab: Your All-in-One Physics Lab Experience

Achieve for iOLab makes your physics labs easier to follow, more flexible, and more connected to the real world—paired with the powerful, portable iOLab device, which is required and available separately or as a bundle with Achieve for iOLab.

With Achieve for iOLab, you’ll get:

  • Prelab prep: Watch short, high-quality videos and complete quick assessments to get familiar with the iOLab device and key physics concepts before lab starts.
  • Interactive lab activities: Use the handheld iOLab device and iOLab Web software to gather and analyze data in real time. Whether you’re in class, in your dorm, or at home, you’ll explore physics through guided, customizable experiments.
  • Flexible postlab assignments: Your instructor may assign autograded questions or full lab reports—Achieve supports both, making it easy to complete and submit your work.
  • Support 24/7 at Macmillan’s support site.

Achieve for iOLab is built to help you stay prepared, understand concepts better, and make lab work more manageable—wherever you are.

Note: You’ll need an iOLab device to complete labs. Be sure to rent or acquire an iOLab device through your bookstore or institution, or through Macmillan’s ecommerce page.

Some of the lab activities within Achieve for iOLab require additional materials. For the Forces and Motion portion of the course, the materials come with the iOLab device as a Small Accessory Pack (eye bolt screw, spring, etc.) or are common dormroom or household materials (tape, paperclip, etc.). If the pack that came with the iOLab device is lost or broken, replacement accessory packs can be purchased as iOLab device Study Extras. 

For the Electricity and Magnetism portion of the course, we recommend purchase of the Small Electricity & Magnetism Accessory Pack for sourcing materials (resistors, capacitors, wires with alligator clips, etc.), which can be purchased with iOLab device as a Study Extra.
