Enablearning, Inc. was started in 1999 by Art Bardige with the firm belief that significant
improvements in learning require revolutionary change that can only be accomplished through the use of new technologies, and with the deep resolve to provide the technology and content to enable every student to succeed.
Art, a pioneer and veteran educational software designer and developer, founded Learningways in 1980, which became one of the largest educational software development companies in the country. The company was sold and Art joined Simon & Schuster in 1996 to form the Learning Technology Group, responsible for educational software in what was then the largest textbook publisher in the US. In 1999, after the acquisition of Simon & Schuster by Pearson, Art started to build Enablearning.
Art teamed up with Luke Biewald, a brilliant young engineer, to design a new Web-based instructional system that focused on providing adaptive, mastery-based practice and dynamic visual content that enable students to succeed. Enablearning's patent-pending Maxwell technology is a first of its kind practice system that makes each and every problem adaptive to the learning level of the student and provides assignments that are mastery-based so that students need only do as many problems as required to learn the concept or algorithm. Enablearning's patented Faraday technology makes dynamic, visual concepts accessible to every student by enabling content developers to easily and quickly create interactive learning experiences for students.
In 2002 Art was joined by Larry Reeves, a leader in Community College education and e-learning. Enablearning focused its initial efforts on addressing the Developmental Mathematics problem in colleges. The EnableMath program was built from scratch to attack what is the biggest roadblock to a college education and the most significant retention problem in higher education.
In 2007 Enablearning entered a partnership with Curriculum Associates, a highly respected K-12 publishing company, to build the EnableMath360 program. Enablearning began the construction of all new content for grades 3 to 6 and its first major upgrade to its web site and user interface in the spring of 2008. Curriculum Associates will begin offering the new EnableMath360 program in the fall of 2009.
Finally, Enablearning will release its EnableMath Home Program in spring 2009. This unique new program employs the successful EnableMath technology with Personal Learning Managers to maximize the potential of home students to successfully master mathematics.
