With its solutions, educators can easily apply research-based, proven practices such as frequent progress monitoring and needs diagnosis, data-informed decision-making, differentiated instruction, and professional collaborations across classrooms, grades, and schools. The company has helped educators address and solve some of the most pressing challenges in teaching and learning. Wireless Generation currently serves more than 200,000 educators and three million students. Wireless Generation supports PreK-12 educators in improving teaching and learning. The company invented mCLASS® software, enabling teachers to use handheld devices for giving formative assessments in the elementary grades.

Additional Web-based reporting, analysis, and instructional planning tools, as well as professional development, help educators to act on students' data. Wireless Generation's Burst:Reading™ is a K-3 reading intervention that uses sophisticated technology to analyze assessment data and produce sequences of lessons for each student, helping teachers to match their instruction to varied learning needs. In addition, the company provides consulting, design, and development services for state and district systems that centralize student data and integrate social networking tools to help educators share solutions to specific problems in their classrooms. A partner to thousands of school systems, Wireless Generation is widely regarded as a leader in how technology can help address the challenges of education and reform.
