Learning Upgrade Offers 100,000 Free Licenses for its Common Core-Aligned Courses

Learning UpgradeTo help students and teachers make the transition to the Common Core State Standards, Learning Upgrade is offering 100,000 complimentary student licenses to schools nationwide. Administrators and teachers can enroll each licensed student into any of Learning Upgrade’s Common Core-aligned courses.

The new courses for grades K-8 were designed and created after the standards were released. Using songs, video and games, the interactive lessons are designed to help struggling students catch up on the previous year’s standards, master current grade-level standards and perform well on the new computer-based year-end tests.

Educators from U.S. schools with at least 300 students who would like to take advantage of the free license offer can click here, then select “Start Free Trial.” Qualifying schools will receive a 20-student license for the 2014-2015 school year at no cost.
