The program you are referring to is called Accelerated Math. I am a math teacher and we use this program in our Middle School. We have only used it for 2 years but have had excellent results in standardized testing. The program can can pinpoint a student's problem area and assign practice and drill in the needed areas. Each assignment is unique and cheating is a thing of the past.

An excellent program, and one I hope that spreads into more elementary classrooms. I'm curious though - all of our middle schools have specialized math classes.. How does the accelerated math program work in your middle school? Is it part of a remedial math program, or ???

How far does it go? (in both grade and mathematical terms -- algebra? trig? calc I?) Got a link?

Just curious, what is your undergrad major?

Your grad major?
