HOW IT WORKS

• Upon subscribing to Study Island, your school will receive a welcome manual with instructions for accessing and using the program. Additionally, an in-person teacher training session option is also available.
• Students can access the program by simply logging on to www.studyisland.com, where they will find each topic organized with a lesson, assessment questions, and explanations. The mastery of these topics will help students gain confidence when taking the New York State 3 through 8 Assessments and Regents Examinations.
• In order to complete the program, students must take the pretest, complete the content groups, and master the post test.

WHY IT WORKS

• Web-based Means 24/7

  Study Island is completely Web-based. Students can access Study Island and learn at their own pace. There is no software to download or install; all you need is an Internet connection.

• Dynamic Content Keeps Students Engaged

  Not only are there several thousand questions in the Study Island program, but each question constantly changes. The answers to the multiple-choice questions rotate positions, and the numbers in the math questions are chosen randomly, resulting in a deeper understanding of the concepts, as opposed to memorization of the answers. This deeper understanding of the concepts enables students to feel prepared when taking the New York State 3 through 8 Assessments and Regents Examinations. Teachers can customize printable worksheets when a paper/pencil option is more appropriate for the learner.

• Confidence Equals Mastery

  Students build confidence in their understanding of the New York State Learning Standards.
