Carnegie Learning's Cognitive Tutor curricula are based on more than two decades of cognitive science research at Carnegie Mellon University studying how students think, learn, and apply new knowledge in mathematics. By combining computer-based training, text, and teacher-led classroom instruction, Carnegie Learning's curricula identifies weaknesses in a student's mastery of mathematical concepts, customizes prompts to focus on areas where the student is struggling, and provides the teacher with a report on each student's progress to aid in classroom instruction. Contemporary word problem scenarios as well as unique features such as an onscreen “skillometer” that tracks the students' progress are designed to keep students engaged and positive.

The U.S. Department of Education's “What Works Clearinghouse” has recognized Carnegie Learning's Cognitive Tutor Algebra I curriculum as having strong scientific evidence of effectiveness and the company is the recipient of the prestigious 2005 CODiE Award for the Cognitive Tutor Algebra I in the category of Best Secondary Education Instructional Solution - Mathematics.
