Cal Poly - Connect Academy

There are many exciting technology-driven advancements occurring in the classroom setting. Blended learning, flipped classrooms, and linked learning are examples of educational innovations that are rooted in schools. Though promising, these new models must overcome institutional resistance and gain acceptance amongst state and district policy makers, school administrators and classroom teachers. They must also be accommodated in state and school budgets for instructional materials.

The Connect Academy takes a different, though complimentary approach. The Connect Academy is a tablet-based portal designed to foster and stimulate a learning environment between a child and a parent in the home setting. The Connect Academy will work in the particularly challenging space of English Learning households where Spanish-language parents struggle to help their children be competitive in English-language classrooms.
