Carnegie Learning™ Announces 24/7 Math Help

Tutoring Service Enhances Carnegie Learning Math Solutions

Carnegie Learning, Inc., the leading publisher of research-based math solutions, today announced the availability of Carnegie Learning™ 24/7 Math Help, a service that provides on-demand assistance from live tutors. Carnegie Learning™ 24/7 Math Help provides tutoring support for students using Carnegie Learning™ Textbooks and Cognitive Tutor® software for Bridge to Algebra, Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Integrated Math curricula.

“The addition of Carnegie Learning™ 24/7 Math Help expands upon the differentiated instruction model at the heart of Carnegie Learning’s pedagogy,” said Dennis Ciccone, Chief Executive Officer of Carnegie Learning, Inc. “On-screen instruction, hints, and interactive examples are designed into our software, and the addition of a certified tutor available 24/7 allows the student to ask as many questions as needed to gain understanding. The combination of these highly responsive tools helps engage the student and minimize frustration which, ultimately, leads to more effective learning.”

Carnegie Learning™ 24/7 Math Help extends learning for secondary schools and postsecondary campuses seeking tutoring services, and offers students the ability to receive one-to-one mathematics help as needed. The two chief components of Carnegie Learning™ 24/7 Math Help are:
A fast and easy Instant Message chat tool that allows students to discuss math problems with tutors
An electronic whiteboard that shows the tutor’s response as it develops in real time

Carnegie Learning™ 24/7 Math Help is hosted at Carnegie Learning Online so students can use it anytime, anywhere – whether in schools, on college campuses, or at home. All professional tutors are carefully certified and continuously monitored. No personal information is exchanged, and answers are saved for later review by students, parents, and classroom teachers.
