The evidence is in the practice

ESSA Level 3 correlation evidence in math and ELA, earned by teachers running frequent formative assessments.

When teachers run 30+ formative questions a week, the research is clear: they get more data-driven, their students get more engaged. Wayground is built to make that practice enjoyable ot run, attainable to fit a class period, and habitual enough to last past September.

About

Mimio began in 1997 with a singular philosophy: to make learning more engaging for students, with technology that makes it easier for teachers to do what they do best - teach.

Mimio was born by way of some very creative thinkers at MIT. Using engineering problem/solution methodology, they realized that students were so occupied with furious note-taking, they weren't fully paying attention to their lessons. Then they wondered, "What if there was a way to obtain the whiteboard notes, formulas, and drawings without having to write everything down?" Their passion for discovery led them to invent what became the MimioCapture™ tracking system. Students could finally concentrate on each lesson, and obtain the notes afterward.

As Mimio grew, numerous breakthrough innovations helped educators focus more on teaching and students concentrate more on learning. The result has been a long history of educational awards and worldwide recognition.

In 2016, Boxlight acquired Mimio. Together they are a leading global provider of technology in the classroom. The partnership enables Boxlight to bring to today's education market powerful, integrated solutions that are unmatched. But even more inspiring is where their combined passion for learning will take educational technology, classroom educators, and students in the years ahead.

Leadership in education. Today and tomorrow.

Today, DYMO/Mimio is a global leader in interactive teaching technologies. And they haven't stopped exploring the future, seeking answers that initially seem impossible. They've invested years of research. They've linked world-class engineers with top educators. All to develop solutions that set exciting new standards for the industry.

The result is the brand-new MimioClassroom™ family of products, the best teaching tools ever. The complications of other interactive technologies have been eliminated. Replaced by a fully integrated system that allows you to add the tools you need, when you need them. And that allows more active participation by students to improve their learning.

Imagine being able to focus on teaching because the technology doesn't get in the way-it makes it easier. Imagine students who learn more because it's more fun. That's what Mimio think about every day, and it's the reason why Mimio products stand apart in the world of interactive teaching.

Whether it's whole-group or small-group instruction, summative and formative assessment, collaborative learning, or personalized instruction, Mimio software and hardware help teachers put these strategies into action, easily and affordably.

Every Mimio product is designed to put students at the center of the educational environment, so they're more engaged, more collaborative, and more motivated. But the teacher still drives the instruction. So we make teaching easier and more rewarding, and learning more exciting. When technology is at its best, it paves the way, rather than getting in the way. Teachers can do what they do best - simply teach.

Differentiating instruction is one of the keys to student achievement. But in order to personalize learning, teachers need to perform real-time summative and formative assessment. Teachers can do just that with one of two options: the MimioVote assessment, or your school's mobile devices equipped with the MimioMobile app. They can adjust their lessons accordingly, and use the data to direct small-group or individualized instruction as necessary.

Mimio's advanced software and mobile app facilitate student collaboration, which empowers them to work together in developing critical thinking skills and building their knowledge across all curricular areas. These skills are essential for their future success and align to the new U.S. Common Core State Standards. Whether it's two students working together or many more, they help each other learn more effectively through collaboration.

Mimio has designed the technology and software to create the learning environments that work best for each classroom and student. And Mimio assessment tools let educators gauge in real time what their students are comprehending - to give them the information they need to meet every student's needs. Personalizing the learning experience may mean delving further into a topic in whole-group instruction, breaking students off in small groups, or covering a subject in more detail with individual students. With the help of Mimio tools, educators can create a more engaging and effective classroom.

It's a world-class classroom. And with teaching solutions from Mimio, it really isn't as out of reach as you may think.

Mimio is mindful of budgets and your need to leverage the products you already have. Whatever your classroom's current configuration, Mimio products work with it. Mimio hardware, software, and mobile app let you purchase only what you need now and continue using the tools you currently own. You can expand as your budget allows and your needs change and grow.

Mimio technology and software are supported by training resources and exceptional customer support. And their vibrant online community at mimioconnect.com lets educators discuss ideas and share lessons with their peers.

MimioStudio software-so easy to use and engaging, your teachers will use it every day.

The MimioTeach interactive whiteboard includes the dynamic MimioStudio classroom software. It connects the Boxlight products, so using other tools-from the document camera to the pen tablet-is quick and easy. MimioStudio software allows educators to create interactive lessons and collaborative activities, and perform real-time formative assessment.

Take learning even further with the MimioMobile™ app, which brings group learning and collaboration to almost any device.

The NEW MimioMobile™ collaboration and assessment app lets schools get the most from the mobile devices they already have by using them for truly collaborative learning and ongoing summative and formative assessment. Schools and students benefit from collaborative group instruction, which encourages student participation and idea sharing, and supports the requirement of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for more student-centric learning environments.

These easy-to-implement strategies can make science, technology, engineering, and math lessons come alive for elementary students.

In a STEM-centered classroom setting, my primary purpose is to create a space where students explore inquiry-based learning in a fun and innovative way by establishing a foundation for scientific thinking and ideas. I give my students opportunities to research, problem-solve, and collaborate with peers as they persevere through challenging tasks. When they work together, they engage in critical thinking skills and develop soft skills that are necessary both within and outside the school setting. This type of work doesn't easily transfer online. Still, it's my goal to provide students with what I call V.I.P. access to STEM through virtual learning experiences, intentional instruction, and presentations. Here are a few suggestions on how to teach STEM virtually.

Virtual Learning Experiences

Currently, my students' learning experiences consist of working with STEM experts and engaging in virtual field trips. I invite STEM experts to attend my online classes to discuss topics such as the coronavirus and how students and their families can stay safe. I also host a Week of STEM, where students talk to various STEM professionals. The experts create PowerPoint presentations and engage students in hands-on experiences. The students ask questions they prepared beforehand to gain insight into the topic and possible careers.

I use Skype a Scientist, various medical groups, and my personal network to find STEM experts to support student learning experiences. I also have a STEM professional, Dr. Nicco West, who serves as my mentor to assist with planning. In working with students of color, it is essential to invite professionals who look like them to motivate my students to pursue STEM-related fields. When my students engage in experiments virtually, I encourage them to wear lab coats, and I call them junior scientists to empower them as well.

My students go on virtual field trips that are free or low-cost to provide rich learning experiences during distance learning. Many museums are collaborating with schools to make this happen. These "trips" allow students to observe various artifacts and primary sources, making learning more meaningful. The Henry Ford website is one of my favorite online resources to assist with virtual field trips. I invite curators to speak to the students to share historical perspectives from exhibits in their respective museums. Inviting curators to share with students provides an additional opportunity to dig deeper into their understanding of various topics. For example, Julie Wertz, a conservation scientist at the Harvard Art Museums, talked about her role and engaged the students in a learning experiment.

Intentional Instruction

Primary school students have curious and creative minds. They're always asking questions about the world around them, so they need to have a safe educational space to promote self-discovery. Students collaborate in groups to complete inquiry-based activities. They create questions to help launch their investigations. Then they use lab sheets to help guide their learning.

When students ask and answer questions, they are engaged in high-level strategies that support their knowledge acquisition. Questioning techniques help spark curiosity and exploration for students. Questioning also helps teachers to assess students' understanding while promoting overall success. The students' questions are recorded on a virtual direct question board, and the questions are maintained on a Google slide so that students can revisit them. Working in groups permits students to problem-solve, make observations, and develop 21st-century skills.

I provide students with research opportunities in various subjects, including animal life and climate change, through the use of books, articles, videos, and websites in order to gain more insight into scientific topics or concepts. I use the platform ClassDojo for students to complete activities to add to digital portfolios that track their work over time. I can select different learning modalities on ClassDojo, such as drawing, typing, completing a worksheet, or making a recording.

Along with questioning and research, my students engage in hands-on learning experiences. Some activities may require families to purchase materials up front. I provide advance notice of what's needed and always consider the costs. My preference is for no-cost or low-cost activities. For example, I do a bird adaptation activity with my students that's designed to teach them how birds' beaks have changed over time to help them find food. It requires gummy worms, cheese crackers, a bowl of water, sunflower seeds, tweezers, a spoon, a toothpick, and a clothespin, objects that most students can obtain without too much trouble.

Presentations

My students need to have opportunities to present their research using a virtual platform. Therefore, they present to the entire class or in small breakout groups of four or five students. If breakout groups are selected, I ask my parents, caretakers, grandparents, former students, or community volunteers to assist. It is important to monitor students, especially the younger ones, to keep them on track. These classroom helpers basically serve as facilitators and sometimes assist the students in completing the experiments. Another way my students present is through pictures or videos that can be displayed in their digital portfolios. At times, I compile their pictures in a PowerPoint presentation and permit them to discuss their project.

As we embrace a new way of learning, students can excel in STEM if provided the opportunity to be exposed to enriched, hands-on learning experiences. When students love STEM, they develop critical thinking skills that transcend all school subjects, and they consider possible careers in STEM-related fields. In these unprecedented times, we must continue to provide students with V.I.P. access to STEM education to inspire hope for the future.
