The Super Star Online service offers several advantages over our
CD-ROM/Network products:

• Home Use - Students have access to the
  software anywhere they have access to the Internet. Many
  schools have days that are very full, and they just don't
  have time to let students access the software as much as
  they would like. With the Super Star Online service,
  students with a broadband connection can work in our courses
  at home and take as much time as they need to complete the
  lessons.
• Parental Involvement - Since students have
  access to their assigned programs at home, parents have the opportunity
  to check the progress of their child by clicking on the Super Star
  button and viewing the Super Star page. We also added a "Parents" button,
  so parents (or other caregivers) can enter the programs in the "Parent Mode".
  The "Parent Mode" allows parent to become familiar with the lessons their
  child is working on, they can also work with their child on the lessons in
  this practice mode, or they can view/print the child's progress reports. These
  engaging and easy-to-understand lessons can be almost as valuable to the
  parent as to the child. Parents will have the opportunity to brush-up on
  skills and concepts they may have forgotten.
• Family Literacy - Some student come from
  families that aren't native English speakers. These families will
  have an opportunity to learn English, phonics and reading, along with
  their child.
• Ease of Administration - Using our Online
  service makes it easier for the school's IT department. They
  don't have to maintain a server, they don't have to worry
  about permissions for network shares, and they don't have to
  manage product and upgrade installations across a multitude
  of workstations. The Super Star Online service supports most
  modern operating systems and web browsers, and it allows
  complete administration of courses and students from any
  location.
• Improved Student Management - Each student
  has a single login, and the student's progress in all
  courses and classes is tracked with that login. Students
  can be moved between classes and keep their progress and
  high scores.
• Quick Updates - When we make improvements
  to our course titles, the updates will be available to all
  students as soon as we make them. You don't have to be
  concerned with which version you have or if you need to
  upgrade, and your subscription gets more valuable over time
  as we add features.
• Quick Delivery - Once we receive your
  purchase order, we can get you online in a matter of hours
  (subject to hours of business).
• More, Bigger, and Better Reports - Our plans
  are to considerably upgrade our reporting features to give
  you the best information possible about course usage and
  student progress. This will make it easy to track successes
  and help you identify students who need more work. The
  enhanced reporting will only be coming to the Online service.
