Vantage Learning Jump-Starts New School Year with Write Across America Program to Help U.S. Students Become Better Writers
Yardley, PA (PRWEB) July 26, 2013 -- As budget cuts continue to threaten the success of schools, Vantage Learning, the world leader in education technologies, is helping schools jump-start the school year by offering the Write Across America Program that will provide qualifying schools or school districts with its award-winning product, MY Access!, starting in the fall of 2013. Vantage will provide the program at no cost.
A writing development solution that enhances student learning using artificial intelligence and linguistics technology, MY Access! provides instant feedback to improve students’ writing capabilities, making it both fun and exciting for them to use and learn.
“A student’s ability to write well can improve his or her opportunities for higher education and gainful employment,” says Laurie Edwards, Chairperson of Write Across America. “That’s why Vantage places so much importance on providing tools that quickly and efficiently help them become better writers and communicate more effectively.”
According to the National Assessment of Education Progress’ (considered the National Report Card) most recent survey, only one in four eighth graders and one in four 12th graders were proficient or advanced in writing.
“We’re trying to make an impact on students’ writing abilities across the country,” Edwards goes on to say. “By applying for the Write Across America Program, districts and schools can offer their students Vantage’s proven method of learning to write well, which, in turn, will boost their confidence and prepare them for college and careers.
Throughout our history, we have considered our interests to be inseparable from the needs of school children around the country. We strongly feel that it is our social responsibility to provide assistance in those areas of education that will generate the most positive impact. In this way, Vantage hopes to improve the world at large by improving a student’s learning capabilities, one student at a time,” she concludes.
