Parents understand that math is important, but recent research shows how overwhelmingly critical it truly is for children.
A recent report from the University of Denver’s Kennedy Institute details numerous surprises that have been discovered about early age math. In fact, this report is what lead to the creation of Elephant Learning. With a baby on the way, our founder realized that there has to be a better way!
In fact, preschool math scores even predict results into high school! One study showed that doing more mathematics increases oral language abilities even when measured between school years.
When children are playing, they actually engage in concepts that are more advanced than we realize. Has your daughter ever had a tea party and evenly split the cookies? That’s division! More tea? Addition! Children explore patterns, shapes, and spatial relations, compare magnitudes and count objects. This is true regardless of gender or income level.
Numerous studies over many different countries and professionals have shown that children are underestimated. When given the opportunity to play the math learning games, children showed much more potential than adults think they have.
When children enter kindergarten, many are behind their peers in math skills. This is true even in highly funded communities. As seen on the chart below, 4 out of 5 students enter kindergarten already behind. That being said, even the top 20% benefited from individualized attention.
Despite the numbers looking dire, with no improvements over the years, researchers know a lot about how to teach math.
Elephant Learning is a compilation of all the latest research. We cut out the middleman, and have the researchers write activities directly for the consumer. With technology and research from their colleagues at the University of Denver, Professor Arias and Dr. Nagrath created Elephant Learning to be the most effective software for teaching math.
The results have been astonishing. Children who attend our academy gained an average of 1.5 years of math knowledge in just 3 months by using our technology for just 30 minutes a week. In fact, we even guarantee the results.
Compared to anything else out there, Elephant Learning is hands down the most effective way of learning math. Learn more here about the academy and technology: https://www.elephantlearning.com/
Elephant Learning's teacher dashboard is now released. Here is a blog walkthrough of the dashboard.
Many math apps are parent-free zones or, at best, parents are an afterthought within the app. Elephant Learning knows that the best results come when the parent is involved in the child’s education. Every study shows outcomes for students are better when parents are involved. The truth is, when I started this company, my first child was on his way. I created this system as a tool to ensure that he receives the benefits of mathematics education and avoids the American educational pitfall. We live in a time when, increasingly, if you are not the person creating the automation, you are the person being replaced by it. Our reports detail exactly how we intend to teach each topic down to the milestone level with advice on how you can further learning with fun games outside of the system. This turns your child’s playtime in the system into a tool to succeed in playtime with you. We provide advice on how to work with the students on mistakes so that the pressure is always off. At any point in time, if your student is struggling, we are always happy to look at the data and advise. That is why Elephant Learning can guarantee results. The math app you choose for your child’s learning matters. Apps that focus on games and graphics with math sprinkled throughout may end up turning those math problems into perceived work for your child (and can become addictive). Elephant Learning begins with a proven curriculum and scientific understanding of how children learn math. We then build games and puzzles around the curriculum, empowering students to truly grasp math concepts. Knowing that parental involvement is key to student success, we also ensure that you, the parent, are involved every step of the way.
I’m so grateful for Facebook and its business tools. We couldn’t have succeeded without it. — Aditya Nagrath, Ph.D., Co-founder, and CEO, Elephant Learning
