Smart List: 20 Learning Platforms

This month Getting Smart is acknowledging people and organizations making a difference with a series of back to school top 10 lists. During August we will run about 40 ‘best of’ lists, not in order, not exhaustive, just people we appreciate.

Today we are recognizing 20 platform providers.

Fishtree is an adaptive learning platform growing fast in popularity across the US K-12 sector and moving into higher education. It specializes in scaling one-to-one instruction but combines the elements of a typical LMS and SIS to offer a really innovative learning environment that incorporates personalization, collaboration and analytics. It can even sit within other infrastructures making it really easy to integrate. https://vimeo.com/77442837
