Pricing

Web Hosting
Our applications are hosted entirely online, meaning you (the client), manage nothing. We provide end-to-end software management including professional development. We take the idea of creating easy-to-use software seriously.
Teacher-Approved
All of our applications are created in collaboration with teachers. A good teacher application is built with practicing educators. In other words, we do not think up ideas and start writing code. Instead, we discuss classroom inefficiencies with teachers, and work to solve them - all before any code is written.
Reliability
We use high powered, fully redundant, managed servers from
Rackspace™. We benefit from a guaranteed zero-downtime network. We are not a web hosting company, therefore we use the best hosting company in the business. We leave the hard lifting of hosting to the professionals. This method allows us to concentrate on our clients and NOT our hardware.
Why plan?
Online lesson plans give administrators the blueprints to classroom instruction (all from a web browser). Without teacher lesson plans, an administrator cannot effectively monitor classroom instruction.

Online lesson plans help teachers quickly organize material and search for loopholes, loose ends, or incomplete content.

Online and detailed lesson plans provide an important sense of security, especially useful to a beginning teacher. Detailed lesson plans help keep teachers on course. Without it teachers are likely to drift aimlessly.

Online lesson plans provide substitute teachers and members of a teaching team with a specific guide to follow if teachers are absent.

Online lesson plans become resources for future use.

Online lesson plans provide a means of communication that helps other members of the teaching team understand what a teacher is doing and how a teacher is doing it. This is especially important when implementing an interdisciplinary thematic unit.

Online lesson plans cause teachers to be or become reflective decision makers. Without a written plan, it is difficult or impossible to reflect after the lesson has been taught and to analyze how something might have been planned or implemented differently.

Online lesson plans are helpful for evaluation, for teacher self-evaluation, for assessment of student learning, and for evaluation of the curriculum.

Preparing and writing lesson plans carefully shows everyone - students, colleagues, administrators, and college or university supervisors - that you care, indicating a high degree of professionalism.
