The season of joy, giving, and hot cocoa is upon us, and we at ScootPad would like to extend our warmest wishes to you and your loved ones this holiday season. As a reminder, we will be on a holiday break from December 24 to January 4 so our team members can celebrate with their families. We'll be back and ready to help as always starting January 7th.
Educators change the world one student at a time. Therefore, having a platform which can adapt to the needs of every student and help fill knowledge gaps is super important. This blog post will address how to use ScootPad effectively in a SPED environment.
With the advent of apps used both inside and outside of the classroom, comes the need to track student learning, or how much time students spend on these apps and devices towards learning. Below we explain why "goals" is the metric we suggest you use instead of "screen time" to spur students on to mastery!

Enhancing the student experience is of paramount importance to us at ScootPad since it is so critical to student success and in helping them achieve mastery. We want each and every student to be engaged, enriched, and encouraged, so we asked teachers and admins from across ScootPad to share some of their best demonstrated practices. Read below and see how others are setting the stage for an awesome student experience.
ScootPad is dedicated to helping teachers teach smarter and not harder! To that end, we kicked off the school year sharing how your classroom can get started with Diagnostic Mode and Adaptive Practice. This helps REINFORCE the skills you are teaching. Next, we shared how automatic REMEDIATION detects and fills all knowledge gaps. Now, let's discuss 2 ways ScootPad helps students RECALL what they have been taught and are practicing.
Once Diagnostic Mode ends, students are automatically ushered into Practice Mode within their Learning Paths. ScootPad detects when a student is struggling and automatically scaffolds content in real-time providing the student with additional practice in prerequisite concepts. This automatic remediation happens with no involvement from the teacher and seamlessly within the students' adaptive practice. In this post, we answer some of the most frequently asked questions about automatic remediation and behind-the-scenes scaffolding:
