“… Inspired by the success of other school districts, the Ector County Independent School District became the first district in Texas to implement the innovative Teach to One: Math program within its middle school system. Since its inception, Teach to One has been focused on providing a comprehensive, tech-driven, personalized experience that provides each student with a customized learning experience to help them reach their full potential. The program features individual computer-based learning, group work based on learning levels, and teacher-based instruction of small groups with similar skill sets. Teach to One combines the most effective aspects of traditional learning with technology aimed at providing customized learning modules to maximize each lesson.”
