Catapult Learning and LTS Education Systems Partner for Adaptive Learning Platform

Catapult Learning and LTS Education Systems have formed a new partnership focused on helping K-12 students achieve grade level mastery through adaptive and blended learning techniques.

Catapult will create a new private label, cloud-based platform for its educators incorporating its instructional intervention programs and LTS' Stride Academy, an adaptive learning program featuring video lessons, game-based incentives, and self-directed skills practice that helps identify and remediate foundational skill gaps in ELA for general ed, RtI, and special ed students. Geometry and algebra materials are available for the high school level.

The new platform will use collected data to periodically diagnose student needs to help drive adaptive online learning.

"In order to introduce a blended learning solution to our customers, we sought an online solution that would be seamless to acquire and implement across devices," said Stuart Udell, CEO of Catapult Learning in a statement. "For students, we wanted easy access to adaptive learning combined with motivational gaming features."
