Instructional Services
Ensure sustainability with instructional support
With Pearson Connexus™, “online” doesn't mean “on your own.” You can lead this transformation, and we're here to support you. Our diverse instructional services will help your educators and students thrive in an online or blended learning environment.
What does this support look like?
Help your teachers provide more personalized learning with grading or tutoring support. Or use our certified online teachers to resolve staffing challenges and provide more course options for your students. If your educators need extra resources, we’ve got you covered.
LiveLesson
LiveLesson® is an interactive platform for online instruction that helps teachers bring the virtual classroom to life. They can expand learning beyond the curriculum content, provide targeted intervention, or lead lesson reviews in real time. Its engaging features — including webcams, polls, video and document sharing, whiteboards, and breakout sessions for group work — allow students to interact and collaborate with each other and empower them to become active learners.
LiveTutor
When students need a quick answer, LiveTutor is there to help. For further explanation of a concept or help with specific problems, students can use the Connexus®EMS platform to connect with a live online teacher. Tutors are available for math, English, social studies, science, and elementary subjects, but do not help with tests or quizzes. LiveTutor keeps learners from getting stuck and eases the burden on your district staff.
