They have unlimited, self-paced instructional opportunities. When they learn they can help themselves, they are empowered and engaged.

You get help and information immediately. At Brainchild, you can talk to the developers, or talk to Jeff Cameron, the president, for immediate action and assistance.
Company History
Brainchild was founded in 1992 when it created the first handheld tutor for students, the PLS-1000. In 1999, Brainchild's online summative assessment for state standards was introduced. On some days, one million students per hour used the system.
In 2003, the Achiever! formative assessment system for state-specific test preparation and instruction on state standards was developed. It provides unlimited instruction customized to each state's learning standards. This gives educators easy and effective ways to measure and assess student progress throughout the school year. You can intervene early and often, and adjust instruction in areas where students are struggling.
In 2005, Brainchild introduced the Study Buddy, a color electronic tutor with multimedia instruction and larger memory capacity. Study Buddy offers offline practice with the same content and multimedia instruction found on Achiever!
