Modular/Lab-based Model for English
A modular approach breaks the learning sequence into smaller pieces referred to as modules or units. Technology is often used to facilitate students’ progress through the course content to create an accelerated learning sequence, so this model is often, but not always, implemented through use of a computer lab.
Pearson offers technology solutions to support modules across the curriculum: MyWritingLab™, MyReadingLab™, MySkillsLab®, and MyFoundationsLab®. Each program offers adaptive tools to give students a personalized learning experience, while allowing them to move through course content
at an accelerated pace.
MyWritingLab, MyReadingLab and MySkillsLab
Each program provides a rich and flexible set of course materials, including customizable tutorials and textbook and video resources. You can assign resources, like animations, to ensure that students are going through the learning process and not skipping ahead to their homework. Pearson's MyLab products also come with built-in assessment tools and services. Learn more about MyLab products for English.

MyFoundationsLab®
MyFoundationsLab is a competency-based, online assessment and skill-building program designed to improve academic preparedness and accelerate learning in reading, writing, and mathematics. This one learning environment enables learners of varying abilities and educational entry points to identify and fill academic gaps at their own paces. Content is arranged by module for each student to master the requisite skills to successfully pursue postsecondary degree paths, reduce placement in developmental studies, save critical financial aid, and accelerate time to completion.
Adaptive Learning and Acceleration in MyFoundationsLab
Students get started in MyFoundationsLab by taking a Path Builder diagnostic assessment, designed to cover developmental math and English competencies. Based on their Path Builder results, students then receive a personalized set of content modules, in a format called the Learning Path. Each content module in a student’s Learning Path covers a general concept such as “Basic Grammar.” Once inside a module, a student takes a shorter diagnostic, called a Skills Check, which defines the exact topics a student needs to understand in order to prove mastery for the module. These topics, for example, might include “Verbs” or ideas related to the larger module concept.
