Case Study: Greenville County School District deepens science learning with ExploreLearning Gizmos

Greenville County School District improves science learning over 11 years with ExploreLearning

The Greenville County School District sought to enhance science education and align with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). The district needed a resource that would provide deeper learning through engaging simulations and support the transition to 1:1 devices. ExploreLearning's Gizmos were implemented as a solution to meet these challenges.

ExploreLearning's Gizmos provided simulations that required students to use prior knowledge, form hypotheses, and manipulate variables like in a real experiment. The solution led to increased student achievement and engagement, facilitating small group collaboration and online labs. Specifically, the use of Gizmos helped students better understand abstract concepts and improved their ability to communicate scientific explanations through argumentative essays, demonstrating a measurable increase in content understanding.
