Teachers deserve better tools. Students deserve better math outcomes.

The design of our instructional system is based on multiple strands of educational theory and research combined with our founder’s two decades of classroom experience.

Our instructional system supports teachers in creating student-centered learning for a wide-range of diverse students. A foundation of student-centered learning is positive relationships between teacher-and-students are related to the healthy development of children for academic achievement and positive social-emotional adjustment. Teachers are supported via three causal pathways that lead to student-centered learning.

• Actionable data

  Dashboards and other tools that help teachers to decide on interventions and enrichment opportunities. 

• Teacher guided assessment

  Suggesting options and allowing professional judgment on the timing of assessments.

• Managing classroom dynamics

  Supporting classroom management with live alerts about student requests for help, struggles, progress, and the ability to selectively reset student activities.

Enabling challenge and support in math for a wide-range of students

Our instructional system enables appropriate levels of challenge and support for a wide-range of students. U.S. teachers have students with diverse needs, prior knowledge, and language skill and yet they have less planning and prep time than other developed nations. Underserved populations (including ELLs) are less likely to be identified as gifted and talented and so enrichment opportunities need to be embedded in the curriculum. Students receive appropriate challenge and support via six causal pathways.

• Competency-based Core mathematical instruction

  Our competency-based Common Core curriculum includes another foundation of student-centered learning, requiring mastery before progressing. Intervention and enrichment lessons offer students their level of support or challenge.

• Next-level blended learning

  Individualized curriculum is combined with small-group mathematical activities that are role-based and structured, and daily whole-class discussions about problems that students find difficult.

• Real-world context

  Students are engaged with using realistic mathematics problem contexts, visual models, and interactive teaching processes.

• Common Core mathematical practices:

  Instructional activities and formative assessments intentionally engage students in the eight mathematical practices.

• Multilingual support for academic instruction in English

  Multilingual learners are supported through Specially Designed Academic Instruction in English (SDAIE) strategies using multiple methods to convey domain-specific language, provide direct instruction for foundational concepts, and embed feedback within lessons. In addition, Guided Language Acquisition Design (GLAD®) approaches embed math vocabulary glossary with animations, audio and text at the start of each lesson and are available with 1-click.

• Developing the whole student:

  Structuring group learning activities and peer-mentoring develop students’ social-emotional learning as a complement to their mathematics learning and executive function improvements.
