January 27, 2010 (FinancialWire) — Archipelago Learning (NASDAQ: ARCL), a leading subscription-based online education company, announced the introduction of Study Island SAT, a web-based SAT review program that provides students and schools with a flexible, affordable and effective option for SAT preparation.

While traditional SAT review programs tend to be expensive and require students to modify their schedules around set evening or weekend classes, Study Island SAT allows students to build a study regimen that is completely flexible to their particular needs, and at a fraction of the cost. Study Island SAT’s web-based platform makes the program accessible anytime, anywhere an Internet connection is available, and unlike typical online practice and test-prep programs, it teaches both the content and strategies to achieve the best possible results on the SAT exam.

A core aspect of Study Island SAT is the use of animated, interactive instructional videos that train students on key test-taking strategies and help them avoid common pitfalls. This approach is designed to be as effective as having a live coach or taking a class. Study Island SAT includes in-depth, interactive lessons in math, critical reading and writing, and real-time progress reports to show students’ strengths and areas that need more practice. The program also provides hundreds of printable flashcards so students can practice common SAT vocabulary, as well as full-length practice tests to reinforce students’ skills and develop their confidence.

Study Island SAT is available for purchase by schools, districts and learning centers, as well as parents and students.
