News Release Friday, February 8, 2007
Students in the eighth through 12th grades in the Brandon School District are the first in the United States to be using a new curriculum technology package that teachers are calling “top quality”. The RM Easiteach Secondary Content Pack is designed to complement the curriculum already in place, according to the District Director of Technology, Paul Spoor.
Spoor says the new system contains pre-constructed lessons that interact with the advanced technology already in classrooms, giving students a new tool to help them better understand and comprehend their lessons. It is designed to supplement the lessons already being taught. RM Easiteach aligns with the federal and State of Michigan standards and is fully modifiable to meet district curriculum changes and needs.
The system was designed by RM Education, a global leader in education technology, which has a headquarters in Hyannis, Massachusetts, and is distributing the RM Easiteach Package to thousand of districts across the United States. Brandon School District is the first in the country to implement the new RM Easiteach Secondary Content Pack. The program has been in development for several years, and Spoor says the District’s teachers are excited by the latest addition to their collection of teaching tools.
Superintendent Thomas Miller says this is another example of how the Brandon School District is always improving the academic opportunities for District students.
