Adaptive Curriculum Provides Continuity of Learning for Math and Science


SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. --(Business Wire)-- Today Adaptive Curriculum announces a preparedness plan for H1/N1 to assist schools with potentially large numbers of students who will need instruction at home in math and science. Winner of nine industry awards in two years as the best online math and science instructional solution, Adaptive Curriculum meets all the recommended strategies from the U.S. Department of Education.



"We are using Adaptive Curriculum as an integral part of our instruction," says Rene Castaneda, Ph.D., Director of Technology at Isaac School District in Phoenix, Arizona. "We know we are prepared if there is an outbreak. Teachers can assign math and science activities online and students can complete activity sheets and assessments and be tracked from home," adds Castaneda.

Adaptive Curriculum online math and science activities are aligned to state and national standards. They provide teacher guides, activity sheets, and assessments for core topics. With a 24-hour, seven days a week customer care program and web-based technology schools, teachers, and students can have instant access to highly interactive math and science simulations.


"In the event of an H1/N1 outbreak, Adaptive Curriculum is a viable option for continuity of learning during school closures. Available and implemented in a matter of minutes, teachers and students have access to more than 240 web-based math and science lessons. A content rich eLearning solution, Adaptive Curriculum fully supports Department of Education recommendations," said Deborah Stirling, Ph.D. Senior Director of Research and Development Sebit, LLC.

The Department of Education's top recommendation is the use of digital instructional resources. Unlike other digital instructional programs, Adaptive Curriculum is completely Internet-based providing complete lessons with detailed lesson plans, teacher guides, student activity sheets, and assessments.

Results and renewed interest in math and science are visible the moment students login and take journeys through interactive virtual worlds, experiments, and problem-solving adventures. Students who are unable to attend school for a period of time can maintain knowledge levels with their classmates as Adaptive Curriculum helps to improve achievement levels.

While Adaptive Curriculum provides a content rich environment for students, Sebit, LLC also believes in engaging teachers. Sebit provides "best in kind" professional development for teachers using technology in the classroom. The professional development program is developed and led by renowned Arizona State University faculty and staff as part of the innovation and entrepreneurship center at ASU SkySong.
