Odyssey Math is a web-based program designed to support mathematics instruction. The program includes a mathematics curriculum and formative assessments that support differentiated and individualized instruction. Odyssey Math can be used as a standalone curriculum or as a supplement to other mathematics curricula, and can be accessed via desktop, laptop, or mobile device. The program begins with a diagnostic assessment, which is used to create a sequence of skills - "learning paths" - that focus on the knowledge and skills an individual student needs to practice. Teachers can manually modify the learning paths generated by the software to support further practice or align with lesson plans. The program also includes assessment tools that generate data teachers can use for instructional decision making.
