Description
Category Description for Saxon Math
Students like Saxon because they feel successful in math instead of overwhelmed.
The most popular homeschooling math program hands down! Highly recommended by both Mary Pride and Cathy Duffy, Saxon Math also wins our award for the "Most Requested Text." Saxon math is a "user-friendly" math program - even for Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus and other usually difficult math topics. Learning is incremental and each new concept is continuously reviewed, so the learning has time to "sink in" instead of being forgotten when the next topic is presented. Higher scores on standardized tests and increased enrollments in upper-level math and science classes have resulted where Saxon has been used in public schools. Students like Saxon because they feel successful in math instead of overwhelmed. Because of the format, children are able to work more independently.
Category Description for Dive (Digital Interactive Video Education)
D.I.V.E. (Digital Interactive Video Education) is ideal for the student who needs a little more explanation than what is in the text. The lectures are approximately 10-20 minutes long, and each is stored in its own file. To use D.I.V.E., the student opens his text to the next lesson and opens the corresponding lecture file on the computer. Lessons take place on a chalkboard/whiteboard screen. You hear the teacher and watch what he writes on the board. In a typical lecture, the teacher gives a short explanation and works several practice problems (not those found in the text). Lectures are given by Dr. David Shormann, an experienced math and science teacher who is an expert on Saxon Math. Lectures can be paused, rewound, or fast-forwarded, so the student can work at his own pace. These are available in two formats – online download (lifetime access) or CD-ROM. D.I.V.E. Compass is a secular version, available in CD-ROM format or digital Download. CD system requirements: Windows XP or higher, Mac OSX, speakers, CD-ROM drive. D.I.V.E. is developed for use with Saxon Math but not by Saxon publishers.
