CARNEGIE LEARNING'S COGNITIVE TUTOR® MATHEMATICS SOLUTIONS

Carnegie Learning's Cognitive Tutor mathematics solutions offer a groundbreaking approach to improving student performance. Based on a cognitive model which simulates the ways in which students think about and attack mathematics problems, the programs engage students in real-world problem-solving activities. This approach helps students connect prior knowledge with the new skills and concepts they learn.

  • The software responds to each student's individual problem-solving strategies.


  • The software assesses student progress on mastering skills and concepts, then diagnostically assigns problems based on each student's strengths, weaknesses and individual problem-solving approach.


  • Individualized instruction provides opportunities to learn, practice and master new concepts and skills.


  • Immediate and dynamic feedback helps keep students on task.


  • The software simulates a one-on-one coaching situation between student and tutor.

"I’ve never worked with a program as comprehensive and engaging as the Cognitive Tutor. Students learn through the exploration of significant and realistic mathematical situations. They are able to truly comprehend subjects that have been abstract and theoretical. Students are more enthusiastic than their peers in the regular curriculum. I never hear, ‘when are we going to use this in real life’"
