Sparkl
SPARKL is a digital learning tool for K-12 teachers and students. It offers a new approach to lesson design and student interaction that enables teachers to focus the learner’s cognitive energy on generating the correct responses, checking their understanding, clearing up misconceptions quickly, and getting feedback throughout the learning process.

Sparkl is all about learning!
-
Backed By Science
Sparkl activity design elements are based on cognitive scientific principles to give teachers options for optimizing engagement, learning, and memory. Sparkl helps change the conversation around learning.
-
Engaging
For students, Sparkl is a learning game. They earn stars for their interactions, get choices about the support they need, and can reflect along the way. Retries and repetition are encouraged for skill mastery.
-
Feedback Driven
Teachers love being able to build in feedback to their activity design, add their own vocabulary tips, and set students up for success. Teachers can also monitor student progress and respond in the moment.
-
Flexibly Integrated
Teachers can rely on Sparkl asynchronously to provide in the moment checks for understanding or switch to anonymous mode to share response data with students. Sparkl is used as a tool for discussion, remediation, and acceleration.
-
Open Ended
Sparkl allows teachers to embrace open-ended questions with features like scaffolded responses, a Sparkl-Bot assistant to give initial guidance about responses, comments, and chances to allow resubmissions for revisions.
-
AI Enhanced
Sparkl saves teachers time with autograded interactions, AI-assisted initial scoring for constructed responses, flexible delivery options, and integrations (SIS & LMS). Sparkl empowers teachers to shift their focus back to learning and students.
