Case Study: Hampton City Schools enhances science and math instruction with ExploreLearning

Hampton City Schools streamlines PD with ExploreLearning’s half-day sessions and 8-week modules

Hampton City Schools, a school district in Virginia, sought to improve student performance in science by providing more authentic and hands-on learning experiences. They partnered with the vendor ExploreLearning and implemented its Gizmos product, a library of interactive math and science simulations, to support teachers and enhance instruction.

ExploreLearning provided Gizmos as a solution to offer students rigorous, technology-driven learning with real-life applications. The implementation was supported by professional development that showed teachers how to use Gizmos for data analysis, a key area of need. The vendor also supplied alignments to state standards, which was a major selling point for the district. While specific metrics are not detailed in the text, the solution was successfully adopted and integrated into the curriculum to enhance science instruction.
