MyMathLab white paper released
Tuesday, September 20, 2011 - 14:11 | By: Katie.Petrillo@pearson.com | Category: Pilots & Case Studies
The MyMathLab white paper is here! Pass rates increased an average of 66% for high school Algebra 1 students after using MyMathLab (powered by the MathXL engine) in the College Readiness Program at Louisiana State University. Based on a need to improve student scores, increase technology and reduce costs, LSU began using MyMathLab in 2004 and introduced the program to local high schools in 2006. Data captured in this report is from the 2010-2011 school year. Read the full report here.
Courses Aligned to Common Core State Standards
Thursday, May 26, 2011 - 16:36 | By: Katie.Petrillo@pearson.com | Category: Product Updates
Common Core State Standards have been added to additional courses in MathXL for School. With the addition of standards, teachers can create and assign homeworks and assessments aligned to the Common Core State Standards to ensure students are learning CCSS content, even if they won't be assessed on that content for a few years. Reporting tools in the Gradebook also allow teachers to see which standards students have mastered and where they need additional practice.
