Weelrn

Weelrn is the TikTok for Academic Learning

Imagine if school offered the excitement and engagement of Tik Tok. What if we replaced textbooks with two-way conversations around videos, GIFs, emojis and tweets? And what if we could transform the silent classroom into a dynamic social network? Students would be eager to go online, participate, and as a result they’d be in the know. That’s the Weelrn advantage.

Improve student outcomes by helping students and teachers overcome the limitations of physical campuses to interact and learn online in social networks. Members and stewards of e-learning community can see the student outcomes which not only demonstrate progress toward content mastery but also prepare students for the world of virtual community they will live and work in after graduation.

About the innovation

Why did you create this innovation?

The lack of social engagement in school and the resulting lack of learning is a global problem. In today’s world, the disconnect between school and popular culture is increasingly jarring. Students actively participate in online social experiences everywhere EXCEPT in their learning community. The result is that schools have lost students from the neck up.

What does your innovation look like in practice?

Automated Feedback - motivate the students to create and share learning content.
Collaborative Learning Assignments - keep the students engaged in learning and with classmates in the virtual learning environment.
A Social Network setting - creates an engaging, interactive and fast paced experience that students are used to from other social networks.
Real Time Monitoring and Data Analytics of engagement data and group dynamics - allow us to optimize and personalize the learning experience, assess student/group performance and keep the learning environment safe and vibrant.

How has it been spreading?

We have tested our prototype in a school showing great results with students and teachers. We plan to finish developing our beta and become a Google for Education build Partner up September 2022 so we can offer schools using Google Classroom to use our product.
