PLATO© Correlation to the Arizona Academic Standards and Accountability
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, Mathematics 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:
