Think Through Math, a new online learning program, has been developed by Think Through Learning, Inc. to help students receive a more fine tuned educational experience. The portal allows students to receive personalized instruction, practice, motivation and one-on-one support.
Each state must abide by a criterion of Common Core State Standards, which dictates what the students should be learning in each subject. Think Through Learning’s program was designed specifically for students who need help learning algebra, while maintaining a focus on the core standards using technology.
“Think Through Math is committed to preparing all students for the highly anticipated rigorous Common Core and STAAR assessments with their emphasis on mathematical thinking,” said Kevin McAliley, CEO of Think Through Math. “We believe that Think Through Math represents a milestone in the effort to develop mathematical proficiency in each and every student. Our unique combination of adaptive instructional content, motivation, and just-in-time tutoring from live state-certified teachers embodies the future of learning.”
By linking technology with education, educators have a better chance of helping students make major strides in their learning curve. “Just as technology has evolved to fundamentally improve how we communication with friends and family,” added McAliley, “Think Through Math makes full use of technology’s ability to both personalize learning and instantly connect students with skilled tutors who know why the student is stuck and how to help them make a conceptual breakthrough.”
Janet Pittock, Vice President of Education, said she has looked over the material that Think Through Math offers students and believes that the program can not only help teach students, but help keep them motivated.
“Much research has been done on effective ways to increase the mathematical understanding and success of students who struggle with Algebra 1,” she said. “We believe that Think Through Math has the potential to truly transform math learning. The program’s use of students to do math outside the traditional classroom setting, the more they will learn.”
