eChalk, a social learning management platform, announced that it will partner with Kentucky’s Jefferson County Public Schools to help the district create school and teacher websites. The online platform will enable teachers, students, and parents in Jefferson County schools to connect, communicate, and collaborate anytime, anywhere, to support effective, personalized learning, eChalk said.
eGenio promoted its Integrated Learning Environment, a digital learning platform that integrates easily with a district’s existing technology tools, resources, and curriculum, the company said. It features a single point of access for administrators, teachers, and students, and it offers differentiation tools, standards alignment, and a variety of content.
eInstruction debuted its Insight 360 system, a “formative instruction” system designed to simplify and enhance the practice of formative instruction in conjunction with interactive teaching. Insight 360 enables educators to obtain instant feedback on student learning through an easy-to-use suite of mobile devices, software, and instructional material that is interoperable with existing technology and systems, the company said.
The suite includes the Mobi 360 mobile interactive whiteboard, which allows educators to move around the classroom and interact with students during lessons, as well as Pulse 360 and Spark 360 student response pads.
ePals, a safe online social network for schools, promoted a ONE DROP project on the ePals community. The project invites primary and secondary school students to take part in fun, educational, and inspirational activities on water-related issues. Learning tools designed by ONE DROP will be available free of charge to students and teachers who are ePals users. As teachers often use the ePals network to help their students learn a second language, ONE DROP will be offering activities in French, English, and Spanish.
Gaggle, which provides safe online learning tools for K-12 schools, announced that beginning July 1, it will include its Human Monitoring Service (HMS) as a part of its subscription service to better protect students and allow educators to focus on teaching. The Human Monitoring Service puts the monitoring of blocked messages in Gaggle’s hands, eliminating the need for teachers to review questionable communications so they can concentrate on classroom instruction.
Gaggle’s HMS team has uncovered bullying, drug use, threats of school violence, teen depression, suicidal intentions, and abusive domestic situations within students’ online communications, the company says—and detecting these issues early “allows parents and educators to intervene positively on behalf of students.”
NetSupport has launched NetSupport School 11, the latest update to its classroom-management software.

Another highlight of the new version is the Teacher Assistant feature, for use on Apple iPads. And, with version 11, NetSupport School is supported on Google Chromebooks as well. What’s more, the Technician’s Console has been significantly expanded to provide a range of additional system and policy management tools.
