Learning Solution

Create an amazing classroom experience

Learning Solution (LS) is the best way to bring Amco’s unique content into a digital environment. Experience our books and their complementary media right on your device with all the benefits of a modern e-reader and many features more. LS is not just a way to view Amco’s content digitally, it’s also a powerful tool for teachers and students to create a dynamic and engaging classroom experience. All of this without needing a permanent internet connection.

LS works differently for teachers than for students, providing each with their own particular experience.

Students

LS presents an excellent way to view their books and interact with Amco’s complementary materials, allowing students to take full advantage of the learning opportunities found in our content. Students can make annotations right on the page, add bookmarks, and add and save images, audio, video, PDFs, or URLs to their personal portfolio.

Teachers

Here is where LS really has a chance to shine. As a teacher, you can take advantage of all the features available for students and also be able to easily screencast your books to any screen or projector. You can add resources like images, audio, video, PDFs, or URLs and link them to specific pages within a book to enhance your lessons, add and recall bookmarks, or display the included complementary media.

Create new and engaging ways of presenting content to your class. With our interactive teacher tools you can transform your device into a smartboard tablet and screencast whatever you draw on your screen or make annotations right on any content you are projecting.

Teachers also get access to the special teacher edition of our book which features additional pages and materials that are essentials to help you plan and develop your lessons.

LS includes powerful tools to help you manage your class. Keep track of your student’s attendance and participation, create class engagement using our random student picker, or use our timer tool to create fun new challenges for your class.

This application is only available to schools subscribing to Amco Educational Services.
