In Hawaii, the Accountability Framework is intended to
make the schools and Department accountable for student achievement
of the State’s proficiency standards and for high school
graduation rates. The Hawaii Content and Performance Standards
(HCPS II) contain the knowledge and skills in reading and
mathematics which Hawaii students are expected to master at
each grade level.
Merit’s language arts and math software programs correlate
to the Hawaii Content Standards II and can help students prepare
for the HCPS II State Assessments. The content and format
of Merit’s programs can help students develop and strengthen
their test-taking skills as well as their reading, writing
and math skills.
Merit reading software has been proven -- through rigorous,
scientifically based research -- to increase both student
reading comprehension and standardized test scores. Merit
research study findings reveal that education software is
an effective tool to improve test scores and academic performance.
