Exploros is a teacher-guide social platform for device-enabled instruction, whether in school or remote. Exploros offers curriculum bundles in Social Studies (600 class-length lessons), ELA (240 lessons), Digital Citizenship (40 ISTE-standards-based lessons) that run on Exploros.
Student Engagement
Teachers choose learning experiences from course playlists and assign them to a class or small group of students. Students actively contribute to the learning experience using social media-style posting. Teachers guide the learning using these student posts to enrich traditional classroom dialog. There are no student bystanders — ALL students engage, sharing graphic organizers, drawings, short essays, and more. This student voice personalizes the learning, and increases meaning. By contributing and reflecting, students also practice social emotional skills daily while learning core academic learning standards.
Teacher Simplicity
When guiding the lesson, teachers have embedded teacher notes, classroom pacing controls, and a progress dashboard, showing real-time student and class progress and achievement. Standards-based analytics help teachers, coaches, and curriculum coordinators with PLCs and data-driven instructional initiatives. Exploros boosts teacher confidence by streamlining instruction — pedagogically strong lessons, student engagement, and analytics, whether in-school or remote.
