Edmentum

Our Edmentum license includes two parts: Courseware and Exact Path. All staff should have access to both.

Courseware consists of pre-made courses for grades 6 and up. Content covers core academic subjects and career pathways. Courseware is generally recommended for learners with reading levels of ABE 2+ or ESL 4+. Teachers should preview content to ensure that it is appropriate for their context.

Exact Path provides diagnostic assessments and customized learning paths in math, reading, and language arts. It covers K-12 content standards in these subjects. Exact Path can be used by learners with reading levels of ABE 1-6 and ESL 3+, with some caveats. Elementary grade level content is usually presented in a simplified, “cartoon” interface that may be unappealing to adults. Exact Path is designed to teach skills in math, reading, and language arts; however, it is NOT designed specifically for English language acquisition.
