New Century Education Corporation

Integrates New Algebra Curriculum into its Courseware

(April, 2004 Piscataway, New Jersey) New Century Education Corporation is pleased to announce that it has expanded its Mathematics Curriculum to incorporate new optional Algebra courseware for middle school and high school programs. New Century's Interactive Algebra responds to the need for all students to master algebra concepts and skills to meet higher standards of mathematics achievement.

Interactive Algebra* was developed by Dr. Ralph Heimer, retired Professor and Chair of the Mathematics Education Program at The Pennsylvania State University. Dr. Heimer is a noted mathematics educator and author of numerous high school Algebra textbooks. In addition, he has had over thirty years of experience in developing mathematics curriculum materials for computer delivery. Interactive Algebra correlates highly to most states' Algebra 1 requirements and is fully integrated under the New Century Management System. Utilizing New Century's proven diagnostic/prescriptive approach to learning, students begin Algebra instruction only after mastering required prerequisite skills. Lessons include tutorial instruction and guided practice. Student progress is automatically tracked and summarized in individual and group reports.
