Abstract PLATO Learning is proud to
introduce the new Academic Systems Algebra! This solution was designed for students entering college under-prepared
for college-level math courses, providing comprehensive, self-paced instruction
that actively engages college students in learning and applying
mathematics. AS Algebra leverages state-of-the-art technology to
deliver top-quality math instruction in an interactive, engaging environment
that addresses multiple learning styles and eases math phobia, allowing students to advance to credit courses more
quickly while increasing overall pass rates, retention, and persistence.
And it provides consistent instruction by faculty and adjuncts alike, while
allowing for on-campus, distance learning, or hybrid programs to accommodate
your institution’s needs. I hope you will join me for a look at
this exciting new program from PLATO Learning!
