McGraw-Hill Contemporary Launches 'Instruction Targeted for TABE® Success' Online Test Prep Program for Adult Learners

"Instruction Targeted for TABE® Success (ITTS) Online" is now available from McGraw-Hill Contemporary to prepare adult learners for the Tests for Adult Basic Education (TABE), a diagnostic tool used to determine a person's skill level and aptitude. ITTS Online sample lessons are available at MHContemporary.com/webfiles/promos/onlinesuite_sampler.html.

TABE, the leading assessment of adult basic skills, is approved by the United States Department of Education for use in adult basic education programs and by the United States Department of Labor for use in workplace education initiatives. Service providers use TABE to 1) report student outcomes under federal accountability guidelines; 2) determine students' functioning level in reading, math, and language arts; and 3) build individual education plans for adults enrolled in basic skills and English as a Second Language courses of instruction; and predict success on the General Educational Development (GED®) Tests.

Ideal for teacher-assisted lab settings or in self-study distance learning, ITTS Online is a complete instructional, assessment, and prescription software based on the TABE 9 & 10 sub-skills for levels E, M, and D in reading, language, and math.

ITTS Online Student Study Plans are individualized to address student skill strength and weaknesses, as assessed by TABE or by the instructor. The Study Plans have a customizable resource database.

  The ITTS Online Management System features:
  --  Lesson reports with date, time spent, and mastery status
  --  Assessment reports with date, percentage correct, and mastery status
  --  Class reports indicating mastery level on each subject
  --  The ability to view reports online, printed, or exported as
      spreadsheets
