NovaNet

NovaNET

The NovaNETproduct, by Pearson Digital Learning, is designed for grades 6-12. NovaNET is a comprehensive, online courseware system that meets countless needs. From delivering thousands of hours of research and standards-based, interactive curriculum, to integrated assessment and student management, NovaNET is an all-inclusive system. The majority of schools in Stark and Portage counties use NovaNET for the following reasons:

* Reach struggling students and recover lost credits
* Increase graduation rates and reduce dropout rates
* Challenge advanced students who want to move ahead
* Prepare students for state and standardized tests
* Provide individualized learning at a distance

As a consortium of schools, nearly 200 user port licenses have been purchased for the current school year allowing over 1000 students to access the NovaNET curriculum thus increasing graduation rates and improving Report Card status. In addition, a NovaNET server has been installed at SPARCC thus enabling students to access content using the local area fiber network rather than the slower Internet.

If schools in Stark and Portage counties are interested in obtaining new or additional NovaNET licenses, contact the SPARCC staff to inquire about pricing and installation.

Please contact the Pearson Digital Learning Sales Represenattive for additional information.
