The BrainX Digital Tutoring System uses patented technology that is research proven to accelerate learning for all students and enhance the formation of strong long term memories of the learned information.
Mini Case Study:
Desert Mirage High School
The Customer’s Need: The High School had 200 10th graders who were operating at a 5th grade Math level. Desert Mirage desperately needed to help these far below grade level students to catch up and succeed at grade level work.
The BrainX Solution: The BrainX Digital Tutor did a complete assessment of each student. The digital tutor used the assessment results to pull lessons, which are aligned to state standards, from a large database and then organized the lessons into individual coursework for each student. The digital tutor then molded the way the lessons were delivered to optimize learning for each student. After the material was learned the digital tutor reinforced the learned material on different days until each student demonstrated mastery.
This group also struggled with self defeating mindset issues like "I can't do Math" or "I am a naturally bad test taker". The Tutor implemented a strategy to improve each student's belief in their ability to learn any subject and to be expert test takers.
The Results: The students started the course work in October of 2008. In May of 2009, the students completed the final section of their math coursework with was a course in probability. The average final exam score in Probability was 85%.

Here is an overview of the processes the BrainX system uses to ensure the success of each of your students:
Process |
Reason |
Demo |
| Personal Digital Tutor: Selection:Students choose their own Personal Digital Tutor from a list of real people who have been digitized. The Personal Tutor choices include an NFL football star; an Actress; a world renowned race car driver along with people from many different ethnicities and from various professions. We even have tutors who speak to students in different languages like Spanish and Korean. | Students choose a tutor they can relate to, giving them greater motivation to complete their work. If they get behind, they respond better to messages about catching up and staying on task that come from a tutor who is in a profession that the student finds interesting. | |
| Diagnostic Assessment: The tutor starts by giving each student a complete diagnostic assessment against state standards. Administrators, Teachers, Students and Parents have instant access to the results of the diagnostic. |
Struggling students tend to think that there catching up to grade level is like trying to boil the ocean. Showing students a finite list of standards along with a concrete plan to learn each standard makes the job of catching up seem more attainable. | |
| Personal Course Plans: The Digital Tutor uses assessments to build a set of personal course plans that contain lessons to fill in each knowledge gap. The course plans are organized so the student masters foundational concepts before moving on to more complex material. |
Personalization means that every minute a student spends on task is focused on what they need to learn next. No time is wasted on material that the student already knows or material that they don't yet have the foundation to learn. | |
| Research Proven Strategies: The tutor has many different methods for delivering instruction. The right method is chosen for each student. For example Bilingual students learn faster if they hear a concept being explained in their native language and then hear the same concept being explained in English followed by immediate practice using the knowledge in English.The tutor has additional research proven strategies for Special Education Students and Struggling Readers as well as for AP and IB students. |
Personalized, intensive instruction is proven to accelerate the learning process for all students. | |
| Personalized Distributed Practice: After instruction, the Personal Digital Tutor organizes a set of questions into a personal study session that the student takes on several different days using a patented system that accelerates long term memory formation. |
Struggling students tend to have a steep forgetting curve. Therefore, effective instruction that does not include an effective study strategy for solving the problem of forgetting is a waste of time. The Digital Tutor ensures that every student does the right amount of studying on the right days to ensure they go down the fastest path to true mastery of the material. | |
| Intervention for Negative Mindsets: Struggling students often suffer from negative mindsets like: “I can’t learn math; I am a dumb and there is nothing I can do about it, so why try; I’m a naturally bad test taker.” The BrainX Digital Tutor works hand in hand with the classroom teacher to implement a research proven strategy to overcome these negative mindsets. | The research shows that negative mindsets become self-fulfilling, so a student’s belief that they are a naturally bad test taker will cause the fight or flight systems in their brain to activate when the student starts a test. These systems shut down the parts of the brain that are normally used to do well on a test. Overcoming negative mindset issues produces a huge boost in student performance. | |
| Built in Multi-Layer Accountability: The Digital Tutor communicates with the classroom teacher, student and parents to make sure every student is staying on task and making consistent progress. Administrators can sign up to receive weekly emails with reports on any students who aren’t making adequate progress along with students who are making superior progress. | The accountability systems ensure that all students make adequate progress every week so students, parents, teachers and administrators have the peace of mind that comes from knowing that every student will reach the required goal for academic improvement. |
In addition to these features, the BrainX system comes with a world class Learning Management and reporting system.

The BrainX system uses a research based accelerated learning approach to mold the delivery of the content to the needs of each learner, providing a one-to-one learning experience. Each student is taken down the fastest path from their current knowledge level to absolute mastery of the content.
First, students take the online BrainX PAS (Pre Assessment Service). This identifies which students are likely to fail the CAHSEE, and should therefore be enrolled in the BrainX CAHSEE Tutorials.
Next, the BrainX system builds a customized course plan based on each student’s pre-assessment within the BrainX CAHSEE Tutorials. At this point students, with help from the BrainX Digital Tutor, can navigate through the approved coursework until they have mastered it.
