Educational Impact
Students need access to basic computers with an internet connection and web browser (laptops or desktops). Ideally no more than 2 students per computer. Account set-up is done remotely by our team. All we need is a list of student names sorted into classes. Students and teachers should feel comfortable using a computer and web browser (for log-in purposes).

Apart from highlighting a lesson's content/concepts, the tutorial videos also save me valuable preparation time.”

Kids are really engaged in the lessons and there is a sense of collaboration as it is encouraged to solve tasks together. Student's don't put on headphones and get lost in the learning. A teacher knows where his/her students are going in their learning. I feel supported by the team and there is a variety of different courses to cover many learning outcomes required for the subject.
