As part of the University’s Summer Institute Program, teachers are learning how to use technology to meet the goals of the new Mississippi College and Career Readiness Standards for math, and their results are going up on you tube. Instructors and teachers say technology is changing the way kids learn, so you have to adapt in the classroom.

Teachers using technology in summer programs
If we don’t incorporate the technology and make it engaging the students will find ways to bring in the technology and use it in their own ways,” said 5th grade math teacher, Cheryl Doss. 20 teachers from the school districts of Columbus Municipal, West Point, Noxubee, Lowndes, and Kemper Counties attended the 4 week program.

Take the dyscalculia test
Is your child struggling in school?
Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
