Literary Companion® is a Web-based learning tool designed for 21st-century education.
Its Student Edition, developed by practicing teachers, enhances students’ understanding and enjoyment of classic literary texts.
For each title in its ever-expanding library, LC employs a carefully developed pedagogy, grounded in critical thinking, to provide students with in-depth study of ten important passages culled from the text.
In the process, LC builds three skills—vocabulary, reading comprehension, and written interpretation—critical to students’ success both during and after high school.
To deliver this content, LC features an interactive-multimedia format that helps literature study become intellectually engaging—opening the door to active analysis by students across the academic spectrum, from remedial to honors.
LC is not a replacement for print-based texts; it is truly a companion—using the technology with which contemporary students are so familiar to enhance their appreciation for literary classics, both old and new.
