Scientific Learning^® Products

The Fast ForWord program is a reading intervention designed for K-12 education institutions and clinical specialists worldwide whose students are reading below grade level.

The Fast ForWord program develops brain processing efficiency through intensive, adaptive exercises. Fast ForWord products offer tested, real-world results for educators and specialists around the globe.

The Fast ForWord program develops and strengthens memory, attention, processing rate, and sequencing—the cognitive skills essential for learning and reading success. The strengthening of these skills results in a wide range of improved critical language and reading skills such as phonological awareness, phonemic awareness, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, decoding, working memory, syntax, grammar, and other skills necessary to learn how to read or to become a better reader.

Fast ForWord reading intervention products support existing curriculum—they don't replace it. They align to state mandates and have been an important factor in AYP success. And, most importantly, the gains students achieve are lasting, the result of enduring positive changes in their processing skills and learning capacity.

Scientific Learning® Progress Tracker, an accountability tool, provides complete visibility into individual, classroom, school, or district performance.

It provides immediate access to assessment on four key skill areas—phonemic awareness, decoding, vocabulary and comprehension—and it provides alignment information for state standards and major Basal programs.

Easy to use email and print tools also make it a snap to send reports to parents, teachers, or administrators on an as-needed basis. Learn more

Scientific Learning® Reading Assistant™ acts as a patient, non-judgmental listener for struggling, self-conscious readers and provides the much needed guided oral reading practice that benefits all students.

Students listen to a model fluent reading of the passage, preview vocabulary, and read the passage orally. After reading, students review problematic words they did not understand and playback their reading.

Reading Assistant is for students who have attained basic word recognition and decoding skills and are now building vocabulary, fluency and comprehension. This includes students as young as first graders, all the way up to adults. Learn more
