Case Study: Kern High School District engages students in problem solving with ExploreLearning Gizmos

Kern High School District boosts science engagement for 5 years with ExploreLearning Gizmos

The Kern High School District sought to enhance student engagement and inquiry-based science learning across its biology curriculum, facing challenges with large class sizes and diverse learning needs. They partnered with ExploreLearning to implement its Gizmos interactive simulations and STEM Cases.

ExploreLearning's Gizmos provided versatile, inquiry-based simulations that allowed students to design experiments and manipulate variables. The solution was highly effective, with students enthusiastically asking to use Gizmos instead of traditional lectures or worksheets. The STEM Cases, in particular, made learning relevant by having students solve real-world problems. ExploreLearning's tools helped teachers accommodate different learning levels, use Gizmos for formative assessments, and even replace missed labs, leading to widespread adoption across the district's science, agriculture, and special education departments.
