Acellus Interactive Learning Courses Adopted by Oklahoma State Textbook Committee

INDEPENDENCE, MO, January 28, 2011 (Press-News.org) The International Academy of Science today announced that the Acellus Learning System has been officially adopted as a textbook in Oklahoma. The Oklahoma textbook adoption process involves rigorous evaluation of instructional materials with respect to Oklahoma's state content standards.

The Acellus Learning System is a computer-based education tool which combines time-proven methods of teaching with advanced technology to provide real-time intelligence and reporting. To help leverage teachers in addressing today's high-pressure state and national testing requirements, Acellus provides an innovative way to deliver effective virtual instruction in an interactive and self-paced environment.

Acellus provides video instruction and utilizes Deficiency Diagnostics and Customized Personal Instruction to offer a comprehensive feedback system that responds to students' interactions by modifying the curriculum to fit individual needs. Based on each student's performance, Acellus creates an individualized experience to ensure that the student understands the concept being conveyed.

To leverage teachers and allow them to interact with their students more effectively, Acellus includes sophisticated administrative tools to manage the learning process. The ability to monitor student activity in real-time means teachers can immediately provide one-on-one assistance when problems occur. The level of data collected gives teachers a deep understanding of each student's problem areas and performance ability, which is a luxury not afforded teachers in schools today.

The Acellus Learning System is working in more than 950 schools, helping nearly 500,000 students across the United States improve academic achievement every day.
