Educational goals
The series focuses on aiding students who struggle with mathematical problems. Products come with two CD discs. One is the Whole Class CD, which allows teachers to configure specific skills for their students.[2] Students learn to understand problems, collect vital information, work in groups and find the answers to math problems. The other is the Mystery CD, which allows students to independently explore for themselves and reinforce the skills they learned in class.[3]
