Axiologix Enters the Online Education Courseware Market
EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, N.J., May 4, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Axiologix Education Corporation (http://www.axiologix.net ) (OTC.BB: AXLX), an educational software provider, is launching a menu of online courses for schools in the K-12 and higher education market. Axiologix is offering 116 courses focusing on providing "online education" to schools as a solution to their need for delivering classes that they would otherwise not have the resources to conduct. The courses were designed by certified teachers who were contracted by a third party fully accredited educational institution under the National Core Curriculum Standards. Axiologix will begin marketing the courseware to Middle Schools, High Schools, Colleges and Universities as of May 9, 2011.
Courseware for long distance learning has been spreading through various higher education institutions and is now becoming more popular in primary and secondary education institutions. According to an MSNBC news report, there are currently an estimated 2 million students in pre-K through grade 12 enrolled in online courses. It is estimated that by 2014 this total will increase to more than 10 million students. Having online courseware as an option gives schools access to more advanced and more specialized courses than most schools would otherwise be able to offer. Many students have expressed an interest in online courseware for this reason, as well as citing the ability to make their own schedule to allow for other outside activities and work at a pace that, for them, is conducive to learning.
A recent study from Black Board and Project Tomorrow found that there is indeed a growing interest in online education with 40% of students in grades 6-12 having researched or otherwise shown interest in taking an online course; however, only 10% have actually taken an online course through their school. Further illustrating the gap between supply and demand for online education, the same study found that 7% of middle school students and 4% of high school students have pursued avenues outside of their school in order to take online courses. Often, online courses are aimed at teachers and this leaves students waiting for accredited, online courses that are geared for them. Axiologix hopes to provide dynamic solutions to the ever-growing needs of students and positively impact the way students learn and interact.
"At Axiologix we are confident that our online courseware will allow students to act as agents of their own education, seeking out knowledge at every opportunity, as well as bringing a larger variety of subjects to the students who want them. With the increased use of the internet, students have become more active in their own education, which makes this a very exciting time for Axiologix to be involved," stated John Daglis, CEO of Axiologix. "Not only will this have a positive impact on students, parents, and teachers, but we believe it will also be a fantastic opportunity for our stockholders."
