<p><span style="color: #000000;">Overview</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">ApangeaMath is research‐based engaging students directly in problem‐solving, using concrete, real‐world scenarios, and prompts the student to think abstractly by converting situations into quantities and units. The students work with multiple representations of problems and appeals to students of all abilities and learning styles.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">ApangeaMath provides online supplemental math instruction for Grades 3 through Algebra – foundations, pre‐algebra and algebra. By offering a unique blend of adaptive instruction that meets students where they are, compelling motivational tools to help students persevere, just‐in‐time tutoring from live, certified U.S. math teachers to intervene when students need it most, ApangeaMath is repeatedly proven to dramatically improve learning outcomes for a variety of populations including struggling, ESL and proficient learners.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Ultimately, the program’s unique instructional design makes math appealing and relevant so students can experience success.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The rest of this description reviews some of the key reasons that ApangeaMath is effective. This includes a research basis, motivation, math focus, the 5‐step problem‐ solving process, the Algebra Instructional Model, and how data drives adaptive instruction.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Reading Intervention and Math Intervention typically go hand in hand. Let’s start with the facts:</p>
<ul>
<li>Nationally, 44% of 4th Graders are not fluent readers</li>
<li>8 million students read below grade level</li>
<li>1.3 million students fail to graduate from high school</li>
<li>55% or less Hispanic and African-American students graduate from high school</li>
<li>72% of 8th grade students are not proficient in math</li>
</ul>
<p>Ready for information on a <a title="Apangea Math Intervention Software Overview" href="http://www.backbonecommunications.com/news/apangea-curriculum-overview-5-step-process-research/" target="_blank">Math Intervention Software Program</a>?</p>
<p>For more on reading, see <a title="Reading Intervention Software" href="http://www.backbonecommunications.com/default-category/reading-intervention-software/">Reading Intervention Software</a> and <a title="Reading Horizons" href="http://www.backbonecommunications.com/reading-horizons/" target="_blank">Reading Horizons Intervention Software Program</a></p>
<p>Constructing and implementing a reading intervention software and a math intervention software approach reinforcing each other is a difficult challenge. Similar questions arise: Drill and Kill, Direct Instruction, Assess Practice Assess Practice, Group Projects, etc.</p>
<p>Of course some students are visual learns or auditory learners. Not every student learns the same way. Every student has skill gaps…or they have the ability to move ahead faster than others.</p>
<p>An on-site evaluation and demonstration is the only way to truly construct a customized math intervention software approach for your students to help all students, below grade level, on grade level and above grade level.</p>

<p>For example, we have a proven math intervention software approach that helps at-risk students develop mathematical proficiency utilizing a systematic approach to help struggling students build fluency in the foundational math skills.   By prescribing, monitoring, and intervening the individualized instruction allows students to systematically target areas of weakness.  Students progress at their own pace, filling in skill gaps to achieve fluency.</p>
<p>We have a proven track record in providing rapid, measurable results with our math intervention software approach.  The progress and program accountability reports give educators and administrators valuable tools to track student results.</p>
<p>“We’re seeing gains of up to two years for students, and teachers in other subject areas have noticed improved attitudes and performance in students enrolled in the intervention program.”</p>
<p>Amy Blanton, Coordinator of Instructional Technology Rutherford County Schools, TN</p>
