Meaningful Science Instruction — In and Out of the Classroom

Meaningful Science Instruction — In and Out of the Classroom

Penda takes one of the hardest subjects to teach remotely — science — and turns mastery into a game that can be played from anywhere. Each of Penda’s hundreds of online scaffolded activities are standards-aligned and designed to support independent learning, which is critical when teachers aren’t in the same room with students. Penda keeps students engaged and motivated with rigorous science learning — but without creating more work for already busy educators.


How Penda Science Supports Distance Learning




Automate Differentiated Instruction & Student Support

Teachers: When you can’t be in the room, Penda keeps students on track by auto-assigning gamified activities that are standards-aligned AND custom aligned to your district’s science scope and sequence. As students work through activities, they receive immediate feedback and support to help them build their mastery without direct instruction. Penda automatically feeds scores into your grade book using Learning Tool Interoperability (LTI) 1.3 Advantage protocols so you can focus on instruction, not grading.

Penda Travels Anywhere, on Any Device

Penda Travels Anywhere, on Any Device

Penda is 100% digital, so whether students are in a classroom or at home, they can access Penda’s activities and keep learning without interruption. With learning taking place in schools, at kitchen tables, and a blend of both remote and in-person environments, Penda ensures continuity for students and simplifies effective virtual instruction for teachers.



So Engaging They’ll WANT to Learn at Home

Penda is based on the science of the brain. Our gamified activities make science learning fun and engaging for students, while Penda’s built-in feedback cycle gives students control over their learning — which is key in distance learning situations. Camaraderie, competition and rewards motivate students to continue learning in and out of the classroom.

Comprehensive Progress Monitoring — No Matter Where They’re Learning

Weekly automated reports keep teachers and administrators in the loop about students’ progress even when they’re learning at home. Robust data enables teachers to focus on adjusting Tier 1 instruction as needed to improve class-wide mastery and provide intervention and support to students who may be struggling. Monthly automated reports help school and district leaders stay informed about district, school and class-wide achievement and identify professional development needs.
