What
is it?
SkillsTutor provides learning modules
that provide interactive instruction in
basic skills associated with Reading, Writing,
Math, Language Arts and Science. The
results of a pre-test will cause the program to
generate a suggested set of modules for the
student to complete. Teachers can monitor
student progress as they proceed through the
modules. A post-test provides data for
comparison and overall assessment of skill
improvement. A tour of the Skills Tutor web site
is strongly encouraged.
