SAN DIEGO, CA, September 16, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Tech4Learning is making it easier for districts to infuse Wixie into their classroom curriculum by integrating with Clever. Now schools and districts can automatically provision and securely authenticate Wixie users through the Clever platform.
Wixie is a publishing and creativity platform used by students to demonstrate their content knowledge and showcase their creativity. Students can access Wixie online from school or home on a wide variety of devices and paint pictures, write stories, and record their voice to showcase their knowledge and ideas. Teachers can use management tools to find, create, or assign new activities, evaluate student work, and view student progress toward standards mastery.
Clever is the platform that powers technology in the classroom. More than one in three K-12 schools and 250 apps connect on Clever to automate data integrations with online learning apps and simplify the login process for students and teachers. Administrators and educators can ensure the right data is securely transferred to applications, while providing a safe option for single sign-on for Wixie and all their learning apps using Clever Instant Login.
"Our goal is to make creating with technology a natural part of the learning process. With the Clever integration, districts can implement Wixie with less effort, and students and staff use an existing log in and take advantage of single sign-on to access a new learning tool," shares David Wagner, CEO of Tech4Learning.
"Wixie is prime example of how technology helping students gain access to and explore learning in unique ways, something core to areas like thinking and creativity," said Dan Carroll, co-founder and chief product officer at Clever, now used by more than 60,000 schools in the U.S. "We're thrilled to have Wixie as a partner and are looking forward to our ability to improve learning outcomes together."
Once the connection has been made, administrators and educators can select the student data they wish to transfer and Clever ensures it is securely encrypted to every app and automatically kept up-to-date. The integration creates efficiencies for schools and districts by only needing to update one system.
