(NYSE: RST), announced that its Lexia® Core5® Reading (Core5)
product earned top platinum honors in THE Journal’s 2018
Reader’s Choice Awards program including being named the Best
Reading Program. Nominated by educators across the U.S., Lexia also
earned platinum standing in several other categories including
Favorite Adaptive/Personalized Learning Tool and Top Educational
game or Gamified Learning Tool.
According to THE Journal, when readers were asked to name
their favorite technology product currently in use by education
professionals, Lexia once again took top honors. In addition,
readers also ‘wrote in’ recognizing Core5 as the most valuable
product their school or district added this year. And the accolades
didn’t stop there. Core5 also received a silver honor under the
Favorite Interventions and Remediation software section.
For its fourth annual Readers’ Choice Awards program, THE
Journal’s staff invited members of the education community to
submit the best products, providers and services in any category of
their choosing and share their views on the significance they play
in schools and districts across the country.
More than 1,100 education technology professionals, including IT
staff and educators, spoke out about the tools they think have the
most positive impact on the mission of education.
“Lexia is a company that is dedicated to solving K-12 literacy
issues through our personalized and blended learning solutions said
Nick Gaehde, Lexia president. “What a remarkable testament to our
flagship product Core5 to be recognized this year - just like last
year – by so many educators who took the time to share their
opinions on what’s working in their classrooms. We are thrilled to
have done so well across so many categories and honored to be
recognized by the educators who read THE Journal.”
As the cornerstone of Lexia’s expanding portfolio of K-12
literacy products, Core5 is a research-proven, technology-based
program that accelerates the development of fundamental literacy
skills for students of all abilities in grades pre-K–5. The program
provides explicit, systematic instruction through personalized
learning paths in six areas of reading and seamlessly adapts with
student performance, targeting skill gaps as they emerge, and
equipping teachers with the data and instructional resources they
need to personalize instruction for every student. Earlier this
year, the company added Lexia® PowerUp LiteracyTM (PowerUp)
to its suite of literacy offerings. Developed specifically to
enhance core English Language Arts instruction for non-proficient
readers in grades 6 and above, PowerUp identifies skill gaps and
provides personalized learning paths in word study, grammar and
comprehension. In 2016, Lexia introduced a computer-adaptive
universal screener, Lexia® RAPIDTM Assessment for K-12
students that assesses the skills most predictive of end-of-year
reading success.
“With more than 30 years of experience in reading pedagogy and
research and several peer-reviewed studies demonstrating the
efficacy of our instructional approach, we have always put the
needs of teachers and students at the core of what we do,” added
Gaehde. “And, we will continue to do so in the years to come.”
