ASCEND MATH ADDS INTERACTIVITY TO ALL OF THEIR AWARD WINNING INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS

Shreveport, LA 9/9/2014 Ascend Education announced today that they are adding new levels of interactivity to all of the instructional videos found in Ascend Math.  Ascend Math is an intensive math intervention program shown to help struggling students gain two or more grade levels in as little as a semester.

Ascend Math includes more than 550 distinct video lessons.  Each lesson will include multiple points of interactivity that support step-wise learning and encourage students to think and write about math consistent with today’s rigorous state standards.  Students will encounter learning prompts in each and every objective and interact with the instructor throughout the video lesson.

“Students learn best when they are engaged,” said Kevin Briley, CEO of Ascend Education.  “Greater interactivity leads to even stronger engagement, better understanding and retention of the material.  That’s why every instructional video in Ascend will be interactive.  All Kindergarten through Algebra lessons will be complete by the end of September.”

In addition to the interactive video instruction each Ascend lesson already includes an interactive, multi-modal student exploration, many of which incorporate a virtual manipulative.
