 PROFILE
Riverdeep Group wants to keep students from feeling they're in over their heads. The firm provides CD-ROM and Web-based educational products for the K-12 market. Its "Destination Math" courseware includes lessons in basic math, pre-algebra, and algebra. The firm also provides simulation software (math, chemistry, physics), and offers free content and teaching tools through its Web site. The firm gained more than 30 new titles in its acquisition of educational publisher and software developer Edmark from IBM, which took a 14% stake in the company. Riverdeep is one of only five education companies positioned to uniquely benefit from President Bush's $5 billion reading education proposal.
