Scientific Learning Corp. announced new enhancements to the Reading Assistant Plus online guided reading tool. Among the new enhancements to Reading Assistant Plus is its availability on the iPad. Students can directly access the Reading Assistant Plus web app through the Safari web browser, eliminating the need to download the app. An additional enhancement is expanded content, with new fiction and nonfiction titles that provide developmentally appropriate content for students in grades 1-12. These include high-interest selections for middle and high school students needing intensive reading support. For teachers, Reading Assistant Plus has a new Auto Initial Assignment feature that streamlines the student assignment process by assessing and placing each student in the appropriate content at the right starting point. This feature not only saves teachers time but it allows students to maximize their time in Reading Assistant, resulting in increased motivation and reading gains.
