ISI offers a series
of computer-assisted instructional programs designed to help
remedial students improve specific skills in the “three
R’s” -- reading, writing
and arithmetic.

This program is
designed to improve the reading skills of students preparing

Students receive instruction in key reading skills and then
practice what they’ve learned in 139 progressively more
complex reading passages. Reading passages include: Literal
Reading, Interpretive Reading and everyday reading situations.
