ODYSSEYWARE, one of the leading publishers of online curriculum for students in grades 3-12, recently announced a number of new tools and courses for the 2012-13 school year to help students make the leap from traditional coursework to engage online learning.

As technology evolves, ODYSSEYWARE has been working to bring schools more enriching learning resources made possible when you tap into tech. As the new school year begins, ODYSSEYWARE teachers and learners will have full access to these new resources and applications that have been integrated into their online learning management system.

•     ODYSSEYWARE SPARC allows teachers to identify student competency levels and provide supplemental materials for targeted remediation of Common Core skills and concepts. Prescribed instruction helps you help your students meet the new standards.
•     ODYSSEYWARE Writer helps teachers meet one of the biggest challenges they face today – improving student’s writing skills. This web-based diagnostic, skill-building, and instructional tool is aligned with The Common Core English Language Arts Writing Standards and scoring rubrics to direct students on a path to better writing.
•     ODYSSEYWARE Investigations! Videos let students explore the world outside the classroom while they’re learning online. Created to connect classroom content to real world experiences, Investigations! Videos engage learners while they add relevance and fun to your lessons.
•     25 New Courses give students more options as they prepare for college and careers including Environmental Science and English Language and Composition (for use with AP* courses), and 23 new CTE courses tied to national career pathways standards. These new courses are ideal for placement into three CTE career clusters: Business Management and Administration; Health Science; and Hospitality and Tourism. Courses appropriate for other career clusters are in development and are planned to be released in the future.
