Ignite! Incorporated is an interactive educational-software company that Mr. Bush co-founded in March 1999. Ignite says its goal is to help students improve their standardized test scores by using multiple intelligence methods. It provides varying types of content to appeal to multiple learning styles and it provides aid in the more difficult subjects like some social sciences, biology, geology, ecology and other general sciences. This non-traditional approach has garnered praise by many of the users to which it is targeted.
