Our Programs Support Distance Learning

All programs are available in digital and print. In 2020, we launched the Activate Learning Everywhere initiative with flexible options to deliver our programs in remote environments. Our Interactive Digital Editions integrate with several LMS systems, including Google Classroom, Canvas, Schoology, Clever, and Classlink. This integration helps teachers as they adapt to the challenges of remote and hybrid teaching. LMS integration includes grade passback.
