Adapt Courseware Provides Free Access to College Foundations Courses, Helping Speed Time to Graduation
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) April 22, 2015 -- Adapt Courseware, which develops state-of-the-art personalized learning solutions, is offering new customer institutions the opportunity to help their students prepare for and complete required courses in an engaging, efficient and affordable way. With free access to Adapt Courseware's Foundations of Reading and Writing, Intermediate Algebra and College Success, students can attain the basic skills necessary to navigate their studies and advance to college-level curriculum.
"We see it happening too often in higher education - students either are not adequately prepared for or can't get their required courses to progress throughout their programs, which can delay college completion and end up costing students a significant amount of time and money," said Mark Brodsky, CEO of Adapt Courseware.
"There seems to be a lot of frustration on the part of both colleges and students regarding foundations courses as nobody wants to pay for non-credit bearing courses. While Adapt Courseware cannot single handedly solve this issue, providing access to our developmental courses at no cost to institutions or their students can help mitigate these challenges. Institutions can scale their offerings, while students can benefit from a productive learning experience that will enable them to quickly and easily transfer into the courses they need, setting them up for a more predictable, timely and successful path toward graduation," noted Brodsky.
Adapt Courseware's evidence-based, adaptive learning methodology motivates and engages students through interactive multimedia that has been developed by award winning entertainment producers and animators in collaboration with academics and instructional designers. Each individualized learning experience challenges the student at exactly the right level and customizes the flow of content and activities based on his or her knowledge and learning style. Adapt Courseware's validation studies demonstrate how this results-driven approach has increased student completion, retention and satisfaction.
Adapt Courseware's Foundations curriculum provides for a seamless transfer to college-level courses. Foundations of Reading and Writing delivers an integrated developmental course where students will learn the basic skills needed for college-level English transfer. Also available is Intermediate Algebra, a foundational course that builds on basic arithmetic operations to prepare students for college-level algebra and all math classes to come, from statistics to accounting.
In addition to the Foundations courses, Adapt Courseware is also providing free access to its College Success orientation course, which takes an in-depth look at what every student needs to succeed. Students gain tips on everything from transitioning to college and managing their time, to reading and note-taking strategies, test-taking best practices, communication skills, assessing finances and grades, and finally career planning and resume writing.
The promotion is valid for new Adapt Courseware customer institutions only. Certain restrictions and criteria apply. To learn more, please call 877-232-7471.
