The school implemented computer-assisted learning for the Learning Lab several years ago, and last year the school’s graduation rate increased 11 percentage points. “The reason for the increase is because this class from last year was the first year that we had the Learning Lab all four years,” said Sills. But despite the success of the Learning Lab, Sills and Lavallee were no longer satisfied with the software they were using for computer-assisted learning. “At the time they were good, four or five years ago, but as anything evolves, they did not evolve in the way that we needed it to,” said Lavallee. In particular, the school’s curriculum supervisors said they weren’t satisfied with the academic rigor of the program.
