Teaching isn't easy. All too often educators are asked to achieve high goals with meager resources and distracted students. No technology alone can improve learning, but an intimate partnership between educational institutions and technology developers can. Our mission is to empower you-to give you the tools and connections to engage students more efficiently and improve educational effectiveness on both a large and small scale. Schoology isn't just an LMS. It's a living, breathing educational community that can adjust to changing student needs, learn from collective experiences, and continually improve as education and technology advance. We strive to provide an unparalleled educational experience that improves student outcomes by providing educators information and insights that were never before possible. Schoology hopes not only to illuminate why particular students learn the way they do, but also to provide support and personalized content that is tailored to them. Schoology is transforming learning through the collaboration of passionate individuals. We're on a unique journey, and this is just the beginning.

Student self-assessment is now regarded as vital to success at school. Black and Wiliam (1998) put it like this: … self-assessment by pupils, far from being a luxury, is in fact an essential component of formative assessment.

Mission: Club Academia strives to organize existing knowledge in ways that make learning easily accessible while simultaneously inspiring people to discover and innovate. Since its founding, Club Academia has provided supplemental instruction to students who are struggling with a particular concept and are looking for further explanation. We recognize that often fellow students can most easily help peers understand difficult classroom material. Starting with only four high schoolers uploading videos to a YouTube account, Club Academia has expanded nearly exponentially, currently with 17 video makers and over 500 videos on our website. With the help of the $20,000 Westly Prize grant, we are able to provide equipment for our video-makers and thus create a strong video base. As a result, we are able to expand into more schools and recruit more volunteers to make high-quality videos for our learners!
