ACTON, MA--(Marketwire - January 11, 2010) - Schools and teachers can now get group discount
pricing on a subscription to VerbaLearn.com, the website for building
vocabulary for students in grades 7 through 12.
Schools and school systems can provide a VerbaLearn Plus account
to every student in a school or an entire grade level for only 50 cents per
student -- while individual student accounts cost $19.99.
Alternatively, teachers can sign up for VerbaLearn's Virtual Classroom for
$50, which includes a VerbaLearn Plus account for each student in the class
and provides weekly updates to the teacher on students' progress. The
Virtual Classroom lets educators easily integrate customized vocabulary
building into their classroom by tracking students' progress individually
and as a group.
VerbaLearn, http://www.verbalearn.com, combines educational content
developed by professors at leading universities with interactive features
that make learning new words more fun and effective. It offers
grade-level-specific courses at the 7th through
12th grade reading levels that are based on national vocabulary
standards.
VerbaLearn automatically customizes each course for each student, so the
student reviews only the words he or she doesn't already know. Since
VerbaLearn is web-based, there's nothing to install or maintain.
Interactive features include video and print flashcards, downloadable MP3
files for listening on an iPod or a computer, online games and crossword
puzzles.
