EZ Learning
Launches Online Math 9 Course using Gemini Technology
Calgary, AB, Canada - Gemini
Performance Solutions Inc. (Gemini) announce the launch of a comprehensive
online Math 9 Program based upon the popular EZ Learning Solutions (EZ)
workbooks and study guides used by over 3000 students. The building blocks
of Math 9 are necessary for student success in all high school math as
the semester system leaves students with long periods between learning
making it necessary to review these basic concepts in order to understand
more advanced learning. The launch of the Math 9 online learning is intended
to address the growing concern over math failure rates in both public
and private schools. This program has been designed to teach even the
most complex math concepts while simultaneously providing a fun and unique
learning experience.
Terry Fletcher, President of EZ Learning remarked
that, "Our decision to partner with Gemini for our online solution was
based upon their eLearning track record, competitive pricing, and ability
to deliver a combination of services that we required including hosting
and eCommerce. However, the most significant value Gemini has delivered
is the end-user product. The online EZ Math 9 course has greatly exceeded
our expectations. Without a doubt this is the key to learning math in
most high schools in North America."
"This is truly an excellent supplementary resource to not only bridge
the gap for hundreds of thousands of Math 8 students to help in a most
difficult transition to Grade 9 but also compliments both U.S. and Canadian
curriculums due to the spiral nature of learning necessary as you progress
through grades 8 to 12" stated Kim Adolphe, President and CEO of Gemini.
The EZ Math 9 program combines the benefits of eLearning
such as interactive exercises, audio and visual aids, and Gemini's adaptive
technology with EZ's proven step-by-step approach to learning Math. EZ
Learning, who also distributes Math 10 and 11 workbooks, also plans to
launch those courses online in the near future.
