Learning.com opens new online store to make its Web-based curriculum available to teachers

Teachers can purchase directly and begin using immediately for their classrooms

Portland, Ore. – April 10, 2008
Learning.com, the premier provider of Web-delivered curriculum, announces that teachers may now directly buy its award-winning curriculum solutions for use in their classrooms. Through an easy-to-use online Classroom Store, teachers can purchase and access both EasyTech, a K-8 technology literacy curriculum, and Aha!Math, a K-5 supplemental math curriculum.

The new online store makes it easy for teachers, principals, technology coordinators and other educators to use classroom funds to purchase Learning.com’s products, providing an excellent resource for classroom use, summer school programs, extended day programs and computer lab curriculum.

“We heard from educators that they have long wanted to use their discretionary classroom funds to buy our products,” says William Kelly, CEO of Learning.com. “With these focused, Web-delivered solutions, teachers can deliver individualized instruction to exactly the students who need it, right when they need it.”

The Learning.com Classroom Store is designed to let teachers make purchases with just a credit card, rather than using a school purchase order. Because Learning.com’s solutions are Web-delivered, teachers get same-day access to the products, and can immediately incorporate their purchases into their instructional day. The solutions may be purchased for as little as $48 and used with 10 students for 90 days. Additional subscriptions may be purchased for more students.
