FAQ
Q: Can your product mark student work and give analytics?
No. We believe that assessing student work robs them of learning opportunities. When students assess their own work for strengths and weaknesses, they practice self-reflection and monitoring. Our product is designed to be used formatively.
Q: Are smart devices required to access full solutions and visual aids?
No. Our e-workbooks have mouse hover activated solutions and visual aids. An internet connection is required if the student chooses to work off the online workbook as opposed to downloading the entire thing. Smart devices are only required for students who wish to print and write. We recommend buying our full workbooks, or printing the pages you want because calculations are easiest to be done by pencil & paper.
Q: What curriculum do your products follow?
All our materials are tailored to the new BC curriculum. With your investment, we hope to expand our offerings across Canada, and eventually across the globe.
Q: Students are already addicted to and distracted by their phones. Why is this product a good idea?
If you can't beat it, use it to your advantage! If students love their phones, then incorporate the devices into their learning. If students have their phone on them at all times, then there is no excuse to avoid doing work. There is also an optional 'study mode' within the app that silences all notifications while the app is running.
Q: Can I make the questions, can I augment my own work packages, can I select the augmented visuals?
Yes! Contact our office to set up a collaboration for a large project! For simple augmentation, simply follow the instructions on our app.
