Carnegie Learning Unveils Web Store for Easy Online Purchase of Supplemental Math Programs

Leading Self-Paced Math Program Brings Research-Based Learning to the After-School Tutoring and Supplemental Learning Markets

PITTSBURGH, PA, July 26, 2006 -- Carnegie Learning, Inc., a leading publisher of math curricula for middle schools and high schools, today announced that the Company’s Web Store is open for business. Targeted to the consumer, at-home learning market, (store.carnegielearning.com) offers Carnegie Learning’s full suite of math products for purchase online.

Carnegie Learning’s Bridge to Algebra, Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Integrated Math I, II, & III curricula have been priced for supplemental tutoring use and the Carnegie Learning Web Store also offers fun math t-shirts and a Community Forum for teachers, parents, and students to share ideas and concerns regarding at-home math instruction.

Carnegie Learning’s instructional format combines textbooks with self-paced software designed around an artificial intelligence model that identifies weaknesses in each student's mastery of mathematical concepts, automatically customizes prompts to focus on areas where the student is struggling, and sends the student to new problems addressing those specific concepts.

All seven curricula are available at store.carnegielearning.com and may be purchased as a full text and software program, or as software-only to enhance and improve the value of any competitive math textbook. All software purchases are supported by 30 days of technical assistance. Also included with the software, is a Teacher's Toolkit, a report that provides parents with a daily view of the student's progress.

Carnegie Learning's curricula are based on more than two decades of cognitive science research at Carnegie Mellon University studying how students think, learn, and apply new knowledge in mathematics. The programs engage students in problem solving and reasoning related to real-world situations. Students are able to communicate using multiple representations of math concepts and are provided with opportunities for analysis, extended investigation and the exploration of alternate solution paths.
