Electronic book applications developer ScrollMotion, US, has announced a partnership with global education provider Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH), US, to develop its Holt McDougal Algebra 1 application for the iPad.
Launched in September as part of HMH Fuse, a new mode of curriculum delivery, the Algebra 1 iPad application is currently being used in a pilot programme for eighth grade classrooms throughout California. The pilot will compare the performance of students using traditional text books with those using the application.
The new HMH Fuse: Algebra 1 app offers touch-screen access to a complete curriculum in students' preferred medium. Linked, point-of-use graphing tools, tips and hints; animated step-by-step examples and solutions; and a dual-format note-taking feature immerse and engage students in every stage of instruction. Tutorial videos, vocabulary support with links to written and audio definitions, and automatic individualised quiz and assessment grading provide innovative, on-demand assistance to supplement classroom instruction.
