FEATURED TESTIMONIAL
“Frax is helping my students understand the concepts better and approaching students in a way that I am unable to do. They are engaged and enjoying the missions because they are built like games. Students are even doing it on the weekend! Thank you!”
— Frax Teacher, Malden Public Schools, MA
“Gizmos gives students a chance to use technology to investigate and model science concepts that can be difficult to replicate in a classroom setting. It helps students visualize processes that can be hard to do otherwise.”
- Teacher, Jordan School District
“Students seem to take their answers a step further and not only state the answer, but they also engage in thinking about why that is the answer.”
- Teacher, Batavia Public School District 101
“I noticed that students are better prepared to answer open ended scientific questions after they have worked with Gizmos.”
- Teacher, Batavia Public School District 101
“I would say that Gizmos has really helped give my students an experience that might not otherwise be available to them. It allows students to access a hands-on learning experience that enhances their understanding of a concept. The STEM cases put students in the role of a scientist and allow them to question, engage, and explore. Gizmos provides a unique and valuable way to participate in labs and scientific phenomenon.”

“They enable the students to conceptualize microscopic things in biology that they otherwise wouldn't be able to.”
- Teacher, Charleston Public Schools
“Frax turned a unit that most students have historically disliked into one of their most fun and exciting units of the year. It's boosted their confidence in their understanding, and when offered a few different math program support options my school has - they consistently preferred to spend their time on Frax vs. other programs.”
- Teacher, Milwaukee Public Schools
“Gizmos is a great to show students concepts that otherwise will be difficult to grasp like tides, coastal winds, to name a few. It helps a lot with ELL students and there are great lesson materials from "Our Community" that are in Spanish and other languages.”
- Teacher, Miami-Dade County Public Schools
“Gizmos engage my students’ interest and get them away from “right or wrong”-type thinking. They are more willing to experiment and explore, and to rebound from a failed attempt to achieve a result, in Gizmos than on paper or working aloud.”
- Teacher
“When my subscription ran out mid-year, my students were actively upset. Some of them reported having tried unsuccessfully to access Gizmos on their own over the weekend, which reinforced for me how important it was to come up with the funding to reopen my account. I’m happy to report that I did, and we’re back to using Gizmos in class and out.”
- Teacher
“We use a different math book, they will randomly shout out, in excitement, "I learned that on Reflex!" or "I knew because I learned on Reflex!"”
