  • "Students love Penda and use it every day - they love the avatars! The gaming platform is one of the primary student motivators and they've told me how much it increases their interest in science. Students want to do the work - not a typical reaction to science - and their scores have improved."

  • "Duval County Public School's (DCPS) transition to distance learning has been an all hands-on deck process. Our partnership with Penda Science has proven to be paramount in helping facilitate the 'switch' from classroom use of Penda to distance learning. The way that the activities are designed mirror our district's format which creates familiarity for our teachers and students. One major assistance in providing support to our teachers and students was Penda offering access to the Penda platform for a number of different grade levels and courses along with increased support for these teachers. Penda Science has proven to be invaluable in helping our teachers maintain instruction and students learning in a fun and engaging way. We are grateful for the partnership.”
