Dive Brief:
- With digital classroom resources on the rise, Knovation’s is setting out to help districts determine which free open educational resources (OER) are worth using via its icurio suite.
- Icurio not only helps educators find digital learning options, but also assists in using these platforms to create personalized learning opportunities.
- The product comes with a resource library filled with over 360,000 digital options, all of which are vetted through an in-house, 127-point certification process.
Dive Insight:
With so many choices, educators can sometimes lose sight of what's best to bring into their classrooms. Knovation aims to help alleviate the stress of sifting through all of the options while also providing a sea of choices. It sounds a bit like LightSail, a K-12 literacy platform, which recently launched a new digital English language arts library containing 200 books appropriate for elementary through high school students. In both scenarios, digital platforms aim to curate smart resources for educators.
