PLATO© Correlation to the Arizona Academic Standards and Accountability


INTRODUCTION

 

PLATO Learning Inc. combines PLATO© computer-assisted instruction into a flexible integrated learning system to enhance instructional effectiveness in education programs. This document identifies PLATO instructional activities that correlate to the Arizona Academic Standards and Accountability, Reading Standard Articulated by Grade Level (Adopted 3.31.03), dated .URL: http://www.ade.state.az.us/standards/contentstandards.asp

It is recommended that instructors review the correlation in order to fine-tune the activity to fit their educational environment. Modules may be added or removed; Web sites and offline activities may also be incorporated to enhance the learning path.

The following PLATO courseware was used in this alignment:
