Austin, TX and Boston, MA Exploros is an enterprise SAAS solution for K12 instructional improvement. Exploros drives student engagement in the live, teacher-guided classroom. As all students become active participants, Exploros automatically develops learning portfolios and Classroom Analytics at the student, class, campus, and district level. Administrators, curriculum coordinators, teachers, and students have greater visibility into curriculum and academic progress and are better equipped to improve outcomes. In a recent Social Studies case study, 94% of campuses using Exploros for U.S. History instruction improved on state testing. The study, representing 19K students of all demographics, showed an average performance gain of 29%. These astounding gains are in comparison to nation decline in social studies performance, where NAEP warns that only 15% of 8th-grade students in the U.S. are proficient in Social Studies. This case study is just one example of how Exploros improves outcomes. "The reason Exploros impact is so significant is rather obvious," says Exploros CEO Bradley Heilman. "Today's student is not particularly engaged in school. By allowing students to securely use social media skills to share ideas in the live teacher-guided classroom, we give every student a voice. Students then engage in learning-standards-based interaction. Teachers see what students do and don't understand in real-time, and can guide dialog and other aspects of the classroom experience accordingly." In short, engaging students and assisting teachers during social instruction yields great results. Exploros is the only teacher-guided instructional platform that enables the delivery of strong, social pedagogy. Exploros is a Google Partner, an Amazon EdStart Partner, and is pioneering real-time data interoperability and machine learning teaching assistance.
