Education Elements Launches Platform to Manage Personalized Learning Initiatives

Education Elements is launching Touchpoint, a new tool designed to support districts as they manage personalized learning initiatives.

A complement to the company's consulting services, Touchpoint is designed to improve communication and aggregate resources.

"Through work with over 100 districts, alignment across teams and schools has been identified as a key challenge for district leaders throughout the implementation of personalized learning," according to a news release. "Touchpoint was developed as a preemptive solution for potential disconnects, because Education Elements believes that for change to be successful, everyone needs to be aligned. Touchpoint provides one single source with all the information, resources and timelines districts need to manage the many moving parts of big system-wide change. Designed to help leaders map and track progress, Touchpoint supports school teams as they design experiences that meet the needs of students and allows district teams to easily onboard new waves of school and staff to the initiative."

"Leaders who are making significant changes in their districts need tools to make the process effortless, not more complicated," said Anthony Kim, CEO and founder of Education Elements, in a prepared statement. "We designed Touchpoint to make it easy to track progress, access resources, align teams and keep projects on track. We recognize that there is a need not only for districts right now, but also as they add new team members in the future."
