Discovery Education’s Math Techbook for Texas provides comprehensive, web-based Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II courses aligned to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). The multimodal program includes a range of digital resources, including interactive learning experiences, embedded videos, animations, and hands-on explorations. Instruction connects mathematics to students’ interests, including careers. Learning List recently completed reviews for the Algebra I, Geometry and Algebra II courses.

Content is organized in units that address sets of related concepts. Units begin with a short video that introduces new content in the context of real-world applications and careers. Course videos include closed captioning and transcripts. Each concept is presented using the “Discover, Practice, and Apply” (DPA) lesson cycle:

Discover provides a framework for direct instruction and teacher-supported guided practice. Content includes sets of “Investigations” that introduce new concepts using text, video, and interactive learning experiences.

Practice focuses on developing fluency through “Coach” and “Play” activities.

Apply activities present challenging, real-world problems (e.g., use linear equations to identify the “real” age of different dogs based on the varying life expectancies of particular breeds).

Techbooks aggregate a diverse set of interactive, multimedia tools in a single digital platform. The program’s user interface is intuitive and easy-to-use. Content for both teachers and students is explicitly organized in terms of the DPA model and is searchable by keyword, standard, and search filters.
