VISION
This site will be the first stop for educators who are building an individualized and meaningful classroom learning experience.
WHO WE ARE
Edufy was started by an Earth Science teacher who, after a number of years struggling to find activities to effectively engage his students, decided his students deserved better and he had to find a better way. Recognizing many of his peers shared in this struggle he decided to ask three friends from the e-learning software industry to help him build a website that would enable teachers to come together to share in the development of quality learning activities. Inspired by the traditional Share-a-thon, Edufy uses the latest in web technology to enable teachers from anywhere in the world to pool together their expertise and develop an open and dynamic catalogue of the highest quality learning activities.
WHAT WE OFFER
We provide a platform to find, share, and edit high quality learning activities shared by other teachers with a focus on STEM education. Edufy makes great teaching easier by providing a broad range of activities that can be mixed and matched to build a learning experience to meet every student's learning needs on every topic. The community of teachers shares their best content, which can be rated and maintained by other users. These learning blocks make it easy to build lessons that appropriately challenge every student, and finding the right content is fast because search terms and matches are organized using educational criteria.
The way things are, the way they should be:
Top down learning experiences which require students to learn in the way in which the teacher excels is impractical because many students perform poorly who can't adapt because of limits of skill and talent. Bottom up learning experiences like differentiated instruction requires the teaching in the way in which the students excel based on assessed student ability, prior knowledge, background, and learning style is impractical because many teachers can't adapt because of limited time or skill.
