With
Spiral Systems’ academic
summary reports, integrated gradebooks,
and automated alert systems, it is easy
to identify students in need of extra
attention. |

Because the gradebook is stored in a centralized
database, administrators can create reports to filter
out the strongest or weakest students in any subject.
As local and federal governments place more emphasis
on standardized state-wide and national tests, it
is easy to find 6th graders currently running a C
average in math, or 4th graders currently running
an A average in science. This data driven approach
makes it easy to pair up stronger students with weaker
ones and allow for peer instruction, a method that
has been proven to be the most effective.

 Academic Success
Students today learn in different
ways than previous generations, and so require
a different set of learning tools. Educational
technology such as Spiral Software Systems
breeds academic success by making information
easier to
access and actively involving students, parents,
faculty, and administrators in the educational
process. These are just of a few of the very
many ways we see that private and independent
schools
can utilize our technology to enhance excellence
in teaching and learning. Test scores increase
and drop-out rates decrease when students have
the tools and resources they need for success.
Spiral Systems provides students with chat
rooms where they can receive extra help with
assignments,
calendars that help keep students organized,
and a host of other features specifically designed
to ensure no child is left behind.

Engage
Students
With Spiral Systems,
private and independent schools are harnessing
the power of the  internet
to successfully engage learners, increase enrollment
capacity without the hassle and expense of
buying new hardware or downloading new software.
Spiral’s
solutions will become truly transformative
as your school can fully utilize data to revolutionize
its methods for assessing learning outcomes
and
academic program quality.
Many schools and teachers have not yet recognized—much
less responded to—the new ways students
communicate and access information over the
Internet. Studies show computer-based instruction
can individualize
instruction and give instant feedback to students,
even explaining the correct answer. The computer
is infinitely patient and nonjudgmental, thus
motivating students to continue.

Interact with Parents
Do you find that parents yearn to play a more active
role, yet you are unable to provide them with the
means to do so? Spiral Systems enables parents to
check their
child's grades, attendance, conduct and schedule,
as well as print report cards and transcripts — all
from their homes and offices through the Internet.
These features are of paramount importance as they
allow and encourage active participation in a child’s
education leading to fuller support and better grades.
Parents no longer need to wait for report cards or
end of term grading, nor wait for parent teacher
night to discuss the individual strengths and weaknesses
of their child. Spiral Systems creates a way for
parents
to be active players in the educational process without
sacrificing time and convenience. |
