Case Study: Kankakee School District achieves differentiated special education instruction with Swivl M2

Kankakee School District boosts special education differentiation with Swivl M2 in one day

The Kankakee School District in Illinois faced a challenge in its special education program, where teacher Danica Garay struggled to provide differentiated instruction for a diverse classroom. Her students had varying needs, including language barriers and different IEP requirements, which made it difficult to address individual questions and provide real-time translations without disrupting the flow of her lessons. The vendor, Swivl, provided its M2 product to help address these challenges.

Swivl's M2 solution acted as an intelligent classroom assistant, providing instant language translation and on-demand information to answer student questions in real time. This allowed the teacher to maintain instructional flow and offer more personalized support. The results included increased student engagement, preserved student curiosity, and more efficient use of classroom time. The teacher also benefited from M2's real-time coaching feedback, which helped her improve her own teaching techniques. Swivl's M2 effectively served as a co-teacher, enabling true differentiated instruction.
