Placing Students at the Center of Powerful New Learning Communities

Different students learn in different ways. Student motivation is essential for educational success. Today’s students effortlessly integrate personalized technology into their everyday lives while parents and teachers struggle to keep up. Learnstorm helps students, parents, and schools meet the challenge of re-engineering education by customizing instruction to match the different ways students learn, using the tools, educational games and technologies that young people love.

The Learnstorm Approach

The Learnstorm eLearning Platform provides personalized learning experiences by introducing students and teachers to educational games and other learning applications. Learnstorm technology gives students, teachers, and parents control over content and connections, tailoring the online experience to individual learning requirements, styles, and grade levels. Collaboration tools like video chat and wikis enable mentors and students to work more effectively with one another online. Game guides help identify and direct students to appropriate study sessions and games. Social media like blogs and digital conversations make learning fun, creative and interactive. On the Learnstorm platform, students and mentors build learning modules that make their discoveries and achievements visible and measurable, while immersing them in unique study and gaming environments.
