MMI 9

Learning Express

I already had an account at Learning Express so I tried accessing it and I successfully remembered my log in and password.  I chose a 4th grade reading test.  Seemed like there was a lot of reading to do to answer 8 questions but I managed.  I did have the test scored and came out ok.  Seemed like a great way to take a test without any pressure.  In the Job Search and Work Skills I decided to take one of the WorkKeys Applied Mathematics Practice Tests.  It was a rigorous test for someone who doesn’t use some of those math skills regularly.  It did seem that if you could answer the questions on the test that you would have a good mathematical knowledge for the workplace.  I looked up public speaking for a search term and in the ebooks I found a Think You Know Your Vocabulary? choice to try out.  It gave lessons for different types of words that would relate to different jobs or conversations (music, politics, nouns, etc.) and had a good variety of puzzles to practice the words learned (crossword, matching, scrambled letters, etc.).  I just might go back and try it again since I now have it in my center.
