Standard Set Answer:
A teacher in my school district uses it regularly in her classroom as a station. Most online math is about the process, not conceptual ideas. I am looking into using it in my classroom. Our school currently uses Odyssey, and I have looked at Front Row Math.
I hope to achieve an in depth knowledge about how TenMarks works, how it strengthens conceptual understanding, annd how I may able to use this data to grow my students in Mathematics.
Because I have never used TenMarks, I would not feel comfortable making choices about organization. In the future, I would enjoy being a part of that process.
