Adaptive Curriculum

Has anyone ever used this software? Does anyone have any good/bad experiences with it? I'm thinking of trying it but I've heard it is produced outside of the U.S., so I'm wondering how true to U.S. educational requirements and norms it is. Thanks!

Hi Julee,
Adaptive Curriculum has a 30 day trial so you can actually decide for yourself. Some of the software developers are originally from Turkey but they are collaborating in the U.S. with educators from ASU. It is totally aligned with many (about 9 so far) U.S. state standards- and the NCTM, NSES.
The desktop has more than one way to search for activities- all of which are virtual "hands on" very visual-math or science. There are lesson plans, student worksheets-teachers can pick and choose what parts will work best in their own classrooms. Go for the trial and check it out! :-)
