PUBLIC MARKS from dclemons with tag "Learning DNA"

Student DNA, StudentDNA(TM) and LearnerDNA - represents a learning technology and methodology on how students learn and remember content. These trade names and marks are owned by LearnCast(TM) and LearnKey(R)Inc. Founded in 2003 by members of LearnKey " Alliance Team" led by David Clemons Partner and President of LearnKey Inc. Contact David Clemons [email protected] or [email protected] StudentDNA is considered the "4th Learning Modality", using visual media content, auditory based feeds, interactive feeds and the 4th Modality - StudentDNA, a learning technology, a science of how students learn based on a unique set of measurements of visual, audio and kinesthetic. Our proprietary learning algorithm is the first measurable learning technology that measures the exact % of visual, audio and kinesthetic modes of learning with once extra proprietary measurement. of personal selection and personal interaction with a learning environment and style. Students learn differently, as unique as a human finger print, each student has a unique learning style and very individualized ability to recall information. StudentDNA, LearnerDNA, represents a simple learning technology that actually discovers how a student learns, how long a student is engaged in learning and when they start “checking out” it also offers solutions to a student who does not understand the content presented. StudentDNA / LearnerDNA Students learn differently, as unique as a human finger print, each student has a unique learning style and very individualized ability to recall information. StudentDNA, LearnerDNA, represents a simple learning technology that actually discovers how a student learns, how long a student is engaged in learning and when they start “checking out” it also offers solutions to a student who does not understand the content presented. Today, classrooms are filled with students who feel lost in understanding the content, unmotivated and or unwilling to learn, not tuned in, disengaged and that they are wasting their time. We all hear this too many times from our students. StudentDNA is an underlying technology that operates in conjunction with content and creates a database of user information that is constantly updated each time a student engages in the system. Through a combination of smart learning algorithms, StudentDNA is constantly assessing the user activity in the following manner: Speed in content delivery response Accuracy of interactive hands on labs User attention span Time engaged The goal of StudentDNA/LearnerDNA is to determine the students balance between visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning modalities. Our goal to constantly validate that our processes are effective and keep the users engaged with content best suited for the student providing a better opportunity for the student of retention of the content. We perform checks and balances that seem invisible to the users yet we pull a constant stream of data on how the student is performing. Examples of how StudentDNA works: 1. The goal of StudentDNA is to provide content to each student with intensity based on the total amount of time that a student can endure and show learning engagement. If the average student averages only 17 minutes of focus when presented educational content, what happens when the student has shut off the learning mode and closed down in 12 minutes? Is the remainder 5 minutes wasted Does the student “check out?” What does the student do when they “check out”? Can a mentor determine who is “checked out” when it happens? StudentDNA is performing checks in the background, watching for gaps in response time, speed of reactions to very simple straight forward presentations, accuracy of simple reoccurrences. The power of studentDNA is measuring student engagement and knows when the student needs a break. When a student disengages from a high level to a low level of input, or response and recall, the system flags a learning alert and creates a series of on screen events such as images, games and exercises as well as a “mentorCall”. The mobile alert system – flags that a student is having focus attention issues. The mentor goes one on one and determines the break and mental status of the user. StudentDNA has both an electronic delivery component for presenting content and a communications component that drives information to mentors who need to monitor where students are.
