Fully aligned to specific state standards, Math Nation’s instructional videos are created with patented technology and research-backed strategies for student engagement. The instructors in the videos, called Study Experts, are always present on-screen and use strategies to keep students engaged, leading to content retainment and mastery. Using Math Nation’s consumable workbooks, students follow along with the exact same Study Guides used by the Study Experts and are encouraged to pause, practice, and reflect during the video. Students have the ability to choose the Study Expert who best matches their learning style and are able to change instructors at any time to instantly adapt to shifts in their needs, such as learning new concepts, where a robust explanation would be helpful, or reviewing previous content, where a faster-paced instructor would be beneficial.
Students solidify their conceptual understanding, fill in learning loss gaps, and attain true mastery when math concepts are presented in a variety of ways, both in class with a teacher and through Math Nation’s Study Expert videos. Instructional videos also meet a critical need for students who miss class. Videos can be downloaded on devices up to 6 years old making Math Nation’s videos available for offline viewing to help bridge the digital divide. The vast collection of Math Nation videos keeps students on track and prevents learning loss that typically occurs with teacher and student absences. Content covered in Math Nation’s instruction videos can be practiced with a variety of Digital Practices tools, available to all students.
But there’s much, much more to Math Nation. Consumable workbooks with local examples work great with the follow-along videos but are also used for review and other purposes without the need for the videos. In addition, there are full teacher resources included, for engaging lesson plans that don’t require the use of any technology at all.
