Helping teachers to help students!
Recent federal education reform, commonly referred to as
President Bush's No Child Left Behind Act
, requires every state in the country to have a standardized testing program as well as an evaluation system
to make schools accountable for the education of each child in their care.
GoToLearn's products are developed from national standards,
NCTM
(National Council of Teachers of Mathematics). What might be skill 8.1(B) in Texas -
could well be skill 8.3(C) in Oklahoma, California or another state. The important thing
to realize is that "Math is Math." No matter what skill is
assigned by a particular state - the concepts don't change.
GoToLearn has developed NEW assessments and tutorials that focus on teaching math skills.
A solid foundation in basic skills enables students to succeed. Developing analysis and problem
solving abilities has proven to be the path to understanding.
GoToLearn's assessments identify areas of weakness. The tutorials help students understand math
concepts and take them through the steps to solve the problems.
Once areas of need are identified, teachers can focus on the specific skills the student requires
to accomplish mastery of the concept.
While emphasizing the building of skills, problems are presented in formats similar to standardized
test formats to familiarize students with the look and feel of those tests.
Ranging from Numbers 1
(1st grade) to
Pre-Albegra (8th grade) and beyond,
GoToLearn provides solutions to improving math skills (and scores) to a wide range of students.

Written by "active" teachers with years of classroom experience, GoToLearn's assessments and
tutorials have been tested and modified so that they can provide the best opportunity for your student
to achieve the necessary skills.
GoToLearn also provides assessments and tutorials to help students improve their
science, social studies, and language arts skills. States without current standards, or states to whom
GoToLearn problems have not yet been mapped, can fulfill assessment and evaluation needs by using the
NEW GoToLearn skill mapping. GoToLearn's skill mapping typically takes each skill to a lower level of
granularity.
