Company Overview

Castle Rock Research Corporation

Castle Rock Research is an educational resource development company that serves schools and their districts, education ministries, national bookstore chains, colleges, universities, and corporate clients by providing them with relevant print and online products. The value that Castle Rock Research provides to customers is the high degree of curriculum specificity of the resources, which are acknowledged for both quality and utility.


Products and Services

Castle Rock Research has successfully launched a number of product lines, maintained contractual relationships with ministries of education, expanded regionally, and undertaken the development of solution-oriented resources. Examples of print resources are:

  • The Key - Student study guides that help the 3 to 12 student prepare for in-class assessments and high-stakes standardized examinations.
  • Student Notes and Problems (SNAP) - Workbooks in mathematics and sciences that provide concise lessons, in-class assignments, homework problems, unit tests, and comprehensive reviews.

Additionally, Castle Rock Research has developed online resources that support primary, secondary, and post-secondary students in their learning.

  • Computer Adaptive Assessment (CAA) - A software application that provides on-demand testing and diagnostic reporting functions for a number of core subjects.
  • Integrity - A tool for educators to use in assessing the validity of test items and determining if there are incidents of collusion (cheating).

Castle Rock Research believes that all students should have access to learning resources and assessments that are based on the specific concepts that formed their learning. For this reason, Castle Rock Research has developed a common framework that is founded on the company's vision of a Universal Curriculum. Castle Rock Research utilizes the Universal Curriculum as the structure for categorizing, storing, and managing content, and as the means for creating new resources for any target jurisdiction's curriculum needs.
