Why ParentPowered Personalized Learning?

Every child follows their own unique path as they grow and learn. Providing every family with the right insights to help support their child on this journey is the purpose behind the ParentPowered Personalized Learning program.

ParentPowered Personalized Learning takes the next step in achieving best-fit tips and activity ideas by using screener results to individualize the program to the child.

This program draws on randomized controlled trial research showing that sending text messages to families based on their child’s development level can increase child learning by more than 2-3 months (Doss, Fahle, Loeb & York, 2018).

 

ParentPowered Personalized Learning is available in English, Spanish, and Arabic.

 

The Personalized Learning Curriculum

ParentPowered Personalized Learning provides families with a whole child curriculum informed by Ages & Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition (ASQ®-3) screener results. The screener results are used to personalize the program to the child.

Each family receives text messages that support healthy growth and development within all areas screened with ASQ-3: Communication, Gross Motor, Fine Motor, Personal-Social, and Problem Solving.

 

When screener results indicate that, in a given area, the child is… Families receive…
Above the Cutoff Fun hands-on activities to strengthen these abilities and build skills to come in this area
Close to the Cutoff Fun everyday activities that support targeted developmental milestones within this area
Below the Cutoff

Activities that support parenting practices within this area. These messages focus on parental modeling and self-care, and do not require any response from the child.

Families also receive regular reminders about how to connect with a live person for support and further assessment.

What Education Leaders Say About ParentPowered

I think ParentPowered is the best approach to family and community engagement I have seen. I have worked at the state and federal level as well as in districts, and family engagement is very difficult to achieve in districts with high poverty, high at-risk populations or just in areas where people are very busy and not as able to go to the school for events.

ParentPowered gives everyone concrete strategies to help their children with both specific academic skills and social emotional skills. It also gives parents important developmental information about their children as well as encouragement for the tough job of parenting. It's actually one of the only things I have purchased, in my 35 years of work in education, that every time I get something, I say to myself "that is so good; I am so glad we use this!" I love what you are doing!

    At the end of the program, families receive a link to the next ASQ-3 screening, with a reminder that filling it out will allow us to continue sending messages based on their child’s most up-to-date results.
