Readorium by Mtelegence
Readorium is the transformative, reading comprehension program for your students. Readorium adapts to your students reading comprehension needs automatically through formative assessments that are embedded within the program. Readorium focuses on science content because it is the hardest nut to crack for many students. We assume zero background knowledge in order for students to build their general science understanding. Each book comes with a book mentor and numerous embedded informational videos. The mentor models the thought processes that are required to comprehend the context of each book. The videos are intended to assist students in reaching understanding of the science content since we want to reach everyone no matter what their reading level. Our hint system goes beyond the basic hints which just tell the student that the answer was wrong and requires them to look back at the text. We begin by guiding the student through reading the question and answer choices. Next we explain exactly where the student needs to read so that they can find the answers on their own. Then we use multimedia to explain the science context itself so the student doesn't lose out on the science. As the student continues to read through the chapter, the reading level adapts. When the student reaches the next chapter the level will either move up or down as the case maybe. Teachers receive score reports that inform them of students' progress, including; amount of time spent, reading level changes and strategy related achievements. Teachers then use lesson plans that can be found in the Teacher Resource Center to differentiate small group and whole class lessons that may not require the use of the computer. Assignments for individual students can be created and printed based on that student's individual performance. Please visit www.readorium.com to sign up for a free trial.
