The Nova Learning Alliance is a revolutionary consortium of leaders in education software development. Their mission is to provide affordable computer access to every student along with world-class software applications that increase the effectiveness and efficiency of technology in a classroom setting.
Fourier Systems has learned through educator feedback and extensive research that a truly successful technology solution must cover a wide range of curriculum needs while being very easy to manage. Fourier Systems and the Nova Learning Alliance are working to develop and deploy an effective solution that will help students successfully learn in a technology enhanced learning environment.
