According to T.H.E. Journal, Austin Independent School District (AISD) in Texas recently expanded the use of the DimensionM educational video games to seven middle schools and 15 charter schools after receiving the results of a summer pilot program to help 350 students who had failed the math portion of the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) test 3 or more times. All eighth-graders must pass the TAKS in order to advance to the ninth grade. Ocoee Middle School, in Orange County, FL, was one of Tabula
Digita's first clients. Educators and students at Ocoee, a Florida
State Demonstration School, have worked closely with all of the
DimensionM games and have learned, and taught others, quite a bit. See

DimensionM™is an immersive video game world that engages students in
the instruction and learning of mathematics. Pre-algebra and algebra
objectives are covered through a series of missions that bring math
into a world that today's students understand. The games are research-based and linked to specific objectives. Download demos to try out this new phenomena.
