Maintaining Focus
Many children are fascinated by computers. Similar to television, many children can spend hours sitting in front of the computer playing games or surfing the web. With the right guidance, the computer can provide invaluable resources for learning. The computer can be used to do reports, build presentations, gather information to aid in doing homework, and many other uses. However, it is the interactive capabilities that make educational software so powerful.

A Positive Learning Experience
Many "learning programs" tend to be game oriented without real content. Academic Visions is answering the need for serious learning software that still holds the student's attention. Learning can be fun but it should also be taken very seriously– particularly with core competencies like grammar and reading comprehension. GramTech promotes a positive learning experience. The student cannot complete a lesson without discovering all the correct answers. Their errors are tracked and affect their score and identify troublesome areas. We have found that students prefer the immediate challenge of an "arcade" score compared to waiting until a tutor/parent grades a lesson. GramTech motivates the student to do well. We have found that students accept the challenge of an "arcade" score. GramTech provides the student the option to retry any lesson. The overall course score is adjusted based on all latest lesson scores. Therefore, students can improve their grades while repeating and reviewing areas where they experienced difficulty.

Easy Review
As a parent, you can review the statistics and even do some of the lessons with the student, allowing your child to explain to you what they are doing. Children enjoy showing their parents what they can do and you both can benefit.

Growing with Your Needs
Students should be encouraged to complete the entire course. With GramTech, they will master the foundation of grammar, and only require periodic reviews, as they continue their more advanced studies in literature and creative writing. GramTech will always be available for quick review and any problem area can be looked into quickly. As your child progresses, more difficult courses can be purchased to keep skills sharp or prepare for exams like the SATs.
