Educators and students who have enjoyed the instructional and learning tools incorporated in Credo?s Literati School now have new feature to utilize, embedded at no additional cost to Literati subscribers. Literati School, which is already in use in over six hundred schools and institutions, will now help students find scholarship opportunities to pay for college at a time when costs have reached an all-time high. Called the FundingFinder Express, this feature will not only increase the value of Literati School for its subscribers, but will help students and their families locate sources of tuition revenue.
According to a release from Credo, ?Drawing on Reference Service Press?s award-winning database, FundingFinder Express offers students the opportunity to customize their search for college aid, receive email alerts when new scholarships that match their profile become available and get deadline date reminders, so they don?t miss out on scholarships that are closing soon.?
?We were excited to establish our partnership with Reference Service Press earlier this year and are thrilled to have implemented this new service,? said Carol Helton, Executive Vice President of Customer Solutions and Marketing, in a statement. ?Reference Service Press? reputation for providing the highest quality financial aid directories, ebooks and searchable databases preceded them and we are seeing great results from this first implementation of the financial aid tool in Literati School.?
While Reference Service Press has had a long and accomplished history of helping specific demographics uncover scholarship sources, groups that include women, minorities, student athletes, persons with disabilities, individuals with ties to the military, and those interested in specific majors, the FundingFinder Express is open to all users of Credo?s Literati School.
Mercy Pilkington is a young-adult author and a teacher in a correctional facility. She does not have a single textbook in her classroom. With the top-of-the-line technology at her disposal and the low reading ability of many of her students, there?s no need for standard paper texts. Instead she relies on e-readers, iPads, desktop PCs, Polycom video conferencing equipment for virtual field trips, live streaming for science demonstrations, and text-to-speech read-aloud software to teach English and science. Within the next ten years, public school classrooms across the country are going to look a lot more like Mercy?s classroom because the educational possibilities with these kinds of technologies are limitless.
