Gooru: Online Learning Platform: Free Educational Resources for Students & Teachers

Students Accelerate their Learning

With the Learning Navigator, any student can accelerate their progress, whether they begin above, at, or below grade level. For historically underserved students who lacked access to high-quality learning opportunities in lower grades, the Learning Navigator provides a way to achieve grade-level proficiency more quickly. For advanced students who are ready to move ahead, the Learning Navigator provides an opportunity to stay engaged and continue to grow.

Within Navigator for Math, students have the opportunity to learn any math concept from grades 2-8. The Navigator “locates” exactly where a student is in their learning and then creates a unique, individualized learning route just for them. Then, it re-routes them based on their engagement and performance, building on what they have already learned and strengthening their confidence and motivation.

Daily Class Activities

‍Teachers start with Formative Assessments
‍Teachers can assign formative assessments to the class. While students work through these, teachers can monitor a real-time dashboard to track progress for the entire class. Using the Learning Navigator’s powerful analytics, intervene instantly and tailor learning experiences to meet their students’ individual needs.

How does the Learning Navigator Work?

The Learning Navigator understands the capabilities and needs of each student, and then provides them with exactly the right resources and activities for them through 4 steps:

1. It locates each student based on school data, precisely determining which knowledge and skills they have already attained and which they have yet to learn.

2. It curates resources within a content library to be able to select exactly the right lesson or activity for each student in each moment.

3. It enables teachers to facilitate personalized learning by monitoring each student’s progress as they learn and continuously suggesting additional activities to support them where they need help the most.

4. It mediates a student’s learning in particular subjects by creating an individualized pathway just for them and by continuously presenting them with reroute suggestions based on their performance.

Reach your Destination
‍The Learning Navigator as a result can navigate each student from their own unique starting point to the destination of mastery.

Navigator for Math

Utilizing this GPS for Learning technology, we have worked with educators and schools to co-create Math curriculum to develop Navigator for Math program. This ensures that every student can gain confidence and accelerate their learning in math.

Navigator for Math is a course of study covering all math concepts from grades 2-8. Students are presented with a route based on their profile and continuously made reroute suggestions based on their performance to provide an individualized pathway designed to build on their current knowledge, as well as fill gaps in their understanding. Through this comprehensive and personalized learning experience, every student can become fully prepared for more advanced math.

Proven Results

Over the past three years, high school students using an earlier version of content called Navigate Math have gained an average of 2.8 math grade levels per year, as measured by the NWEA MAP. (Christensen Report)
