Challenge
The Calvert School, a leader in home schooling for over 100 years, wanted to open a new market, providing its curriculum to children with language-based learning disabilities (LLD). But traditional in-office methods of assessing and matching LLD students to appropriate materials cost more than Calvert stood to gain. It needed a new approach to support this underserved market.
Solution
Mind Over Machines collaborated with experts in learning disabilities and delivered an innovative, online, multi-media assessment tool, eliminating the cost and inconvenience of in-office assessments and offering parents a screening option short of the life-long labeling that accompanies a medical diagnosis.
Results
Within four hours of go-live, Calvert received a 40 percent response rate from its initial promotional e-mail. Within 30 days, nearly 400 students registered for the assessment.
