Report Overview

Summary of Alignment & Usability: Imagine Learning Illustrative Mathematics IM 6-8 Math | Math

Product Notes

As of November 2021, LearnZillion was rebranded as Imagine Learning. The substance of EdReports’ reviews of products formerly published under the LearnZillion name remain unchanged.

Content for Illustrative Mathematics 6-8 Math was developed by Open Up Resources and authored by Illustrative Mathematics. LearnZillion Illustrative Mathematics 6-8 Math 2019, McGraw Hill Education Illustrative Mathematics 6-8 Math 2020, and Kendall Hunt's Illustrative Mathematics 6-8 Math 2019 draw upon this mathematics content, therefore the scores and evidence for Gateways 1 and 2 are the same in all programs, albeit with differences in navigation. There are also differences in usability as LearnZillion Illustrative Mathematics 2019, McGraw Hill Education Illustrative Mathematics 6-8 Math 2020, and Kendall Hunt's Illustrative Mathematics 2019 do not have the same delivery platform for the instructional materials.
