LearningExpress Library Database via The Buena Park Library DistrictCurriculum: Learning, Education, Improvement, and Preparation
Suitable for high school
Annotation: LearningExpress is a database that helps students learn, improve, and prepare for college.
Summary: LearningExpress is a database that has a category for every age group: elementary, middle, high school, college, and adults. For high school, it has a wide array of learning techniques. They include logic and reasoning skills improvement, math skills improvement, reading comprehension, science skills, statistic skills, trigonometry skills, vocabulary and spelling skills, and writing and grammar skills. Within each category are subdivisions that include courses and practice tests. The tests and lessons are electronic, therefore there are ebooks and etests. In order to access this database, you need to have a library card of the library that is supporting it.
Critical Evaluation: This database is really comprehensive not only in subject matter, but also different styles of learning. They range from courses to practice tests. Its very simple to use as well. The interface has the main subjects, which link you to sub-genres, and within those sub-genres are the different types of learning techniques involved. Once you've found what you are looking for, you click on the very right: "Add to My Center." Afterward, you can just download the free ebook or etest and begin your lesson. This database is once again a win-win for the library and its patrons; you need a library card to access it and once you do you can help further yourself. Even within the name, you know it will be easy to use, it helps an individual further themselves, and I'm glad that this is being done sooner than later.
