George Fox University Expands STEM Learning Resources for Students Through Numerade Partnership

In an effort to boost student success in STEM subjects, Oregon's George Fox University has partnered with STEM learning platform Numerade to offer students free access to the company's video tutoring platform.

Numerade's STEM video library boasts more than 5 million educator-created videos and more than 150 million AI video tutorials, according to a news announcement. In addition to those resources, George Fox students will have access to:

  • Numerade's "Ace" AI tutor, for multimodal, conversational tutoring;
  • The ability to ask questions and receive custom video tutorials from Numerade's educator network;
  • Access to a library of STEM and test prep "bootcamps"; and
  • Other features such as study groups, quizzes, mobile apps, and an AI detector.

"We're very excited to partner with George Fox University and provide Numerade's extensive STEM resources to its entire student population," said Nhon Ma, CEO of Numerade, in a statement. "As a college student, it was very hard to get help from my teachers' assistants or college tutors due to the inconvenience and cost, especially evenings and weekends. Numerade was created to solve this pain point for most students."

"We are delighted to partner with Numerade to enhance our students' learning," commented Rick Muthiah, director of learning support services at George Fox University. "The AI integration was a significant factor in our decision, and their other resources provide an array of tools for students. Our math department is enthusiastic about the possibilities with Numerade, and I'm engaging with other departments about how Numerade could be of use for their students. Given the abundance of AI tools, I see great value in guiding students to Numerade's Ace AI tutor, which is trained to promote learning. Numerade is working to foster true understanding rather than just providing quick answers. I look forward to continued collaboration with Numerade staff as we develop and refine our use of Numerade at George Fox."
