The EdReady Montana Program is a personalized, free, no-credit, online program that helps students master the mathematics skills they need to succeed: to work on improving a math placement score, to prepare for an upcoming math course, to fill in any gaps in general math skills, or to supplement a particular math course. Since the program is online, you can work on the material at your own pace whenever it best fits into your schedule. You will also receive support throughout the learning process, including progress checks, help with math content, and technical support.

Every current and prospective student at UM can address gaps or challenges they have in math readiness to secure a strong foundation for college-level success using EdReady. We want to ensure our students are placed into a math class that accurately represents their skill level and are prepared for upcoming math classes, so that they can be successful.

Currently, there are modules built for students who want to:

• refresh skills deemed essential for success in all math courses at the Applied Calculus level and below
• independently target certain skills as part of a co-requisite math course,
• develop skills that apply to other math-intensive areas, such as chemistry, physics, or health sciences, and
• increase practice and confidence in their math abilities.
• use as a placement test and study plan to increase placement level

Math is a sequential subject area, so the importance of having a solid foundation cannot be over-emphasized. EdReady can help build that solid foundation, ensuring that your skills are up-to-date with few to no gaps.

EdReady is UM’s math placement system.  Students take an initial diagnostic test which provides the minimum placement for a student.  From there, the system builds a personalized study plan based on the diagnostic whereby students have the opportunity to learn and practice skills to improve their placement level.

Course Preparation

• If you have placed into a math class, but have not taken a course in the subject for a while, doing a module in EdReady for that class is strongly recommended to "get your math-brain re-oiled."
• If you are planning on taking a course that requires strong math abilities (such as chemistry or physics), there are modules built to help you freshen up your math skills.

Confidence Booster

• If you want reassurance that you are prepared for your upcoming math course, EdReady helps boost your confidence in your abilities before stepping foot in the classroom.
