An online learning tool launched in Chattanooga to help introduce more middle school students to careers in the science, math and technology fields has been acquired by North America’s largest provider of digital curriculum for career and technical education courses.

The Learning Blade, which was developed by Chattanooga-based Thinking Media more than a decade ago and now operates in parts of nearly 40 states around the nation, is growing into even more schools since the teaching platform was purchased last December by eDynamic Learning.

With more than 100 careers and 400 lessons in the specific contexts of science, math, English and social studies included, Learning Blade provides supplemental online materials and student missions to help integrate science, technology, engineering and math into core courses or as a stand-alone program, often implemented during before- and after-school programs.
