StudentMate™& Optional MathScore®

StudentMate™ and MathScore expand student computer use and increase math proficiency.

MathScore is a patent-pending, Internet-based math practice environment designed to raise student math achievement. MathScore is unique in its ability to supply an unlimited number of practice problems that are tailored to each student's capabilities and in its ability to provide teachers and parents with instant feedback.

Developed by an MIT graduate and “battle-tested” in schools throughout the country, MathScore is a paperless, online math program designed to provide unlimited math practice. It randomly generates fill-in-the-blank math problems that automatically adapt difficulty based on performance. Instant feedback is provided along with step-by-step explanations. This enables students of all skill levels to very efficiently improve in math and have fun in the process.

• A complete math tool that supplements any curriculum
• Adapts to each student’s needs
• Developed by an MIT grad who scored 800 on the SAT math section and spent a year volunteering in classrooms at an elementary school to study student learning.
• Aligns with the NCTM Focal Points
  Grade by grade, MathScore meets and often exceeds the revised standards set by the Curriculum Focal Points report released by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM).
• Cost effective solution with no servers or software to install
• MathScore is a subscription-based math environment accessed entirely through a password-protected Internet account.
  

• Hands on for students, hands free for teachers
• Targeted math practice is the key to improvement
• One hour equals one month of timed tests
• Students complete 10,000 problems a year (based on one hour per week)
• Easy-to-use analysis tools monitor student progress
• Classroom statistics display data for all students by a specific skill such as Fraction Simplification
• Activity summaries show teachers exactly what each student has accomplished in any given time period
• Frees teachers to focus on critical thinking concepts
• No time spent grading
• By choosing MathScore as a supplement to the class curriculum, teachers can support every child at his or her own level

FOR STUDENTS:

• Challenging, engaging, tailored to each student’s needs
• Challenges students of all abilities
• MathScore’s patent-pending algorithm tailors the problem sets to the skill level of the student, allowing advanced students to move ahead at their own pace and providing remedial help to students who need to master basic skills
• Tailor-made worksheets, instant feedback, and step-by-step solutions
• No two worksheets are identical
• Taps into competitive gaming culture
• Students are naturally motivated to beat their own best score in any game, from computers to sports. The MathScore rating system taps into that competitive drive to engage students in a math skills environment. As in the video game world, students are challenged to master each level, and with each new level, the challenge (and math mastery) increases.
