Cognia to Acquire CenterPoint Education Solutions

Communicationworks

Cognia ®, the leader in school improvement and evaluation, announced today that it is acquiring fellow nonprofit CenterPoint Education Solutions, which supports educators in their use of assessment and curriculum. This acquisition, which was approved by Cognia’s board of directors Tuesday, enables Cognia to expand its assessment program to offer curriculum-based assessments offered at multiple intervals during the year. The new assessments and aligned professional learning offered by CenterPoint provide an alternative for state education agencies, districts, and schools that want something more than traditional large-scale summative assessments. The assessments used by most states today for accountability purposes are not designed to help improve teaching and learning because they are given at the end of the year and do not reflect the curriculum that has been taught. Based in Washington, D.C., CenterPoint has an extensive K-12 assessment item bank in mathematics, English language arts, and science. “CenterPoint is one of the most highly regarded curriculum-based assessment providers,” said Dr. Mark A. Elgart, president and CEO of Cognia. “This acquisition allows Cognia to be competitive in an emerging market immediately—this will have a direct impact on our existing summative work.” Cognia now offers options for next-generation assessment of learning for students across K-12 with learning alignment between classroom instruction and student assessments that are aligned to state standards and meet accountability requirements. “CenterPoint has an important resource in curriculum-based assessments that are of great value to schools, districts, and states,” said Sue Krause, interim CEO of Center Point. “Cognia has a vast network of schools, districts, and states that are committed to improvement and want their assessments to reflect what students are learning.” CenterPoint works with schools, districts, and states to provide reliable curriculum-based assessments, high-quality academic services, and expert professional learning solutions. This acquisition primes Cognia for growth and expands what Cognia offers states and districts that are looking to improve and be more responsive to students, parents, and teachers. “These are two like-minded, mission-driven organizations that together will develop opportunities for states to align assessment with curriculum, improve their accountability systems, and drive improvement,” said Laura Stover, managing director, ETS and former CEO of CenterPoint. The acquisition expands Cognia Assessment Solutions from grades 3 to 8 in English language arts, mathematics, and science to a full complement of K-12 summative and interim curriculum-based assessment solutions. The important grant-funded work CenterPoint is doing in K-12 science assessment will continue. CenterPoint staff will become a part of Cognia to support the design and delivery of curriculum-based assessments, and professional learning training on assessment use and literacy. The acquisition is expected to be finalized by June 30, 2024. Cognia will assume responsibility for the operation of CenterPoint on July 1. About CenterPoint CenterPoint Education Solutions is a nonprofit organization that supports schools, districts, and states in designing and implementing aligned systems of high-quality curriculum, assessments, and professional learning that drive high achievement for all children. About Cognia Cognia ® is a global, nonprofit improvement organization dedicated to helping schools and other education providers grow learners, teachers, and leaders.

Cobre says testing at Ngami Copper Project confirms suitability of in-situ recovery process

COBRE LIMITED

Cobre Ltd (ASX:CBE) CEO Adam Wooldridge joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with an update on the company's Ngami Copper Project (NCP) in Botswana's Kalahari Copper Belt following the conclusion of the first phase of hydrogeological testing. The project has an exploration target exceeding 100 million tonnes at 0.5% copper, addressing challenges such as cover thickness, steep dip, and grade. Wooldridge explained that the in-situ recovery method offers a low operational and capital expenditure solution while being environmentally friendly, potentially producing green copper cathode on-site, which could revolutionize operations on the Kalahari Copper Belt and benefit local communities. The process requires mineralization to be leachable, a correct water table depth, and appropriate hydrological controls, including a natural fracture network. Cobre has confirmed the project's feasibility for in-situ recovery through extensive testing, including recent well tests that demonstrated the ability to inject into target fractures, identify seals and intersect significant mineralization depth. For the remainder of the year, Wooldridge said Cobre plans to pursue a three-tier strategy: big-picture exploration for tier-one deposits in collaboration with BHP, advancing high-grade targets for short-term gains, and progressing the in-situ recovery process towards a scoping study. This approach includes hydrological, engineering, and economic studies, metallurgical tests, resource drilling, and pilot testing, aiming to transform the project and the company's prospects significantly Contact Details Proactive Investors Jonathan Jackson +61 413 713 744 jonathan@proactiveinvestors.com

PharmAust advances monepantel for motor neurone disease towards FDA approval

PharmAust Ltd

PharmAust Limited (ASX:PAA) CEO Dr Michael Thurn tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that the company had a "pivotal" Pre-Investigational New Drug Application (Pre-IND) meeting with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as it advances the development of monepantel, an approved veterinary drug, for motor neurone disease. Thurn highlighted the drug's potential in exploiting autophagy properties to treat motor neurone diseases by breaking down toxic protein build-ups, particularly TDP-43 aggregates in neurons. The company has completed a Phase 1 oncology clinical study for monepantel in humans and is preparing for a pivotal field trial in dogs for B cell lymphoma. A significant milestone is the upcoming end of Phase 1 for its motor neurone disease program, with data expected by the end of February. Thurn said the FDA's positive feedback indicates the potential for full approval after a 48-week study. Monepantel's mechanism, inducing autophagy, positions it as a promising treatment for various neurodegenerative diseases beyond motor neurone disease, including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, suggesting its potential as a blockbuster drug.

Atlantic Global Risk Goes Live with Novidea Insurance Management Platform to Eliminate Data Silos, Empower Staff

Novidea

Novidea, creator of the cloud-based, data-driven enterprise insurance management platform, today announced that Atlantic Global Risk, a specialty insurance broker focused on designing complex insurance products for legal, tax and credit risks, is now live on its innovative insurance platform to improve data quality and achieve operational efficiency across the entire organization. Before implementing the Novidea platform, Atlantic Global Risk relied on multiple applications to handle a variety of processes. They used a CRM solution to maintain sales leads, an enterprise cloud platform to manage associates, policies, and documentation, and an agency management application to manage invoices and customer records. Not all of these were designed for the insurance industry, meaning Atlantic couldn’t customize them specifically for their business needs. The myriad of applications also resulted in data silos across functions and departments, requiring employees to re-key data and thus expend resources on redundant tasks. “As one of the fastest growing specialty brokers in the US, our staff's deep knowledge and expertise is our differentiator. However, disconnected applications not designed with insurance in mind and inefficient, repetitive processes based on inconsistent data kept our experts from adding more value and giving data-based guidance to our clients. With Novidea, we finally have the technology we’ve been looking for to build upon, scale, and maintain one central repository for all critical information workflows,” said David Haigh, Founding Partner at Atlantic Global Risk. “Novidea is helping us to manage our data and customer relationships with more granularity, better reporting, and more impact. By removing information silos, we have attained greater visibility and access to higher quality data empowering our people to accelerate processes and to provide our clients with better service.” Novidea’s insurance management platform is an intelligent, cloud-native, data-driven platform for brokers, agencies, wholesalers, and MGAs. Its award-winning technology drives efficiency across every stage of the insurance policy distribution lifecycle – from lead to quote to bind to claims. This allows organizations like Atlantic to scale their business with a comprehensive, 360-degree view of all their customer and operational data. Novidea’s platform seamlessly connects Atlantic’s front, middle, and back offices. “Our research shows that insurance organizations are juggling an average of five different technology solutions that power various aspects of their business. This approach creates data silos, holding them back from making better business decisions. It’s why 75% of these businesses say they will change their insurance management technology by 2025,” said Eric Ayala, Managing Director of Americas for Novidea. “We’re honored to be the insurance management platform of choice for Atlantic as they continue to streamline efficiencies and deliver a world-class customer experience.” Novidea experts will be demonstrating the platform’s value and capabilities at this year’s WSIA and Target Markets insurance industry events. About Novidea Novidea is the leading Insurtech provider of a cloud-native, data-driven insurance management system. With its open API architecture, Novidea enables brokers, agents, MGAs, and carriers to modernize and manage the customer journey end-to-end and drive growth across the entire insurance distribution lifecycle. Novidea's streamlined and automated platform fully integrates front, middle, and back offices. The Novidea platform boosts operational efficiency while providing a seamless digital experience for team members and customers alike. Insurance businesses benefit from a 360-degree view of customers and policies and can access data and actionable insights anytime, anywhere, and on any device.

Analyst Ali Martinez Makes a Bullish Pepe Price Prediction; Shiba Inu and KangaMoon Remain Top Meme Coins To Watch

Kangamoon

Meme coins are always causing hype in the DeFi sphere. This time, analyst Ali Martinez gave Pepe (PEPE) a thumbs up, and things got even more exciting. Meanwhile, Shiba Inu (SHIB) and KangaMoon (KANG) remain the top meme coins to watch. Some analysts hint that KANG (a Stage 6 presale star) may jump by 1,000% in 2024. Let’s discover why. Ali Martinez: The Pepe Price May Hit $0.00000274 Recently, crypto analyst Ali Martinez made some headlines with his Pepe (PEPE) price prediction. According to his tweet, this meme coin may surge to $0.00000274 soon. In terms of the Pepe price movement, it has jumped from $0.0000012 to $0.0000020 in the past week alone. Its market cap grew from $505M to $856M in that period. Meanwhile, there are now 23 technical indicators flashing green for the Pepe coin. Thus, experts remain bullish. They foresee the Pepe price reaching $0.000010 within Q2 of 2024. Shiba Inu (SHIB): SHIB Army Propose a SHIB ETF Meanwhile, there were some exciting Shiba Inu (SHIB) developments. For instance, the SHIB army made a new proposal on Change.org for a Shiba Inu ETF by Grayscale. This petition has already obtained close to 2,000 signatures. This Shiba Inu news may trigger a bullish run for this crypto. The Shiba Inu crypto has surged from $0.0000091 to $0.00001031 over the past 30 days. This meme coin’s market cap increased from $5.37B to $6B during that period. Furthermore, over 25 technical indicators are flashing green. As a result, analysts predict Shiba Inu will reach $0.000016 within Q2 of 2024. KangaMoon (KANG): Brings Innovation to the Meme Coin Space KangaMoon (KANG) is a game changer in the meme coin market. Standing out from its peers that often have no use, KangaMoon integrates Social Fi and play-to-earn (P2E) elements into one. Introducing a P2E game for KangaMoon makes it different, as it will let players use KANG tokens for character upgrades, in-game purchases, and more. This new utility sets KangaMoon as a strong competitor in this sector. You can spectate matches, bet with your KANG holdings, and unlock weekly, monthly, and quarterly challenges. By completing these challenges, you earn extra in-game items and tokens, which can be sold on the KangaMoon marketplace. In Stage 2 of its presale, KANG has already raised nearly $150K, with each meme coin priced at just $0.0075. This marked up a staggering 50% from its starting price. These are amazing numbers that beat expectations by far. However, market analysts predict that once KANG hits exchanges in Q2 2024, it could see a 100x surge. Anyone may start earning KANG tokens before its official launch by buying one meme coin and spreading the word on social media. If interested, sign below for a 10% bonus on each purchase. Can KangaMoon Outpace Pepe and Shiba Inu? KangaMoon has a market cap of just $7.5M. With a lower valuation than competitors like Pepe and Shiba Inu, it will require fewer new funds to increase its price. As it faces off against these peers, KangaMoon’s potential for rapid growth rises significantly. Thus, KANG may be one of the top meme coins to invest in for fast returns. Discover the Exciting Opportunities of the KangaMoon (KANG) Presale Today!
