I. OVERVIEW AND MODES OF THE PMT
®
The Personal Math Trainer (PMT) is a powerful tool that monitors student assessments, quizzes, and homework to
provide them with targeted support.
The PMT can be utilized in the following ways.
• Tests & Quizzes: can be used for diagnostic, formative, and summative assessment
• Homework: reinforces what has been taught and ofers learning aids
• Adaptive Intervention and Enrichment: builds a student profle, identifes student profciencies and
weaknesses, and can create a personalized learning path
• Tracking: can show student progress and growth over time
• Reporting: can generate student and class reports by standard or by assignment
• Grading: automatically scores items
PRE-BUILT PMT ASSIGNMENTS
The PMT is a collection of pre-built assignments that can be assigned to students in diferent modes.
Visit my.hrw.com to gain access. The diferences between the modes are summarized in the table on the next page.
