We are exploring a way to bring technology based tools into our Math
Curriculum. We are currently using Everyday Math K-5, but feel that
it leaves us short in several ways. The curriculum committee of our
Lower School is really interested in RealMath. I have explored it in
review and like what it brings to the table. I am particularly
interested when it comes to assisting the teacher with planning and
assessment, and more individualized reinforcement for the students.
We are 1:1 grades 4-12 but might deploy RealMath in only 4 and 5
grades for now.
My questions are:
1. Are any of you using RealMath and has it delivered what you expected?
2. Is it academically robust enough to challenge the children yet
keep them engaged?
3. How much of a hit on bandwidth (subjectively) on your network has
it added?
4. Does it seem that their servers handle the loads all through the day?
Thanks for any insight
