It's never been more important - or more complicated - for schools to ensure their classroom #EdTech is safe and secure. 🔒 At Prodigy, exceeding best practices in cybersecurity and safeguarding user data is always top-of-mind. It's one of the reasons we recently received the Common Sense Privacy Seal for "going above and beyond." Chief Technology Officer Ben Johnson leads Prodigy's work on cybersecurity, and spoke to eSchool News about the "green flags" districts and schools should look for when assessing classroom tools. 👇 https://lnkd.in/gpeqzYiU #cybersecurity #gamebasedlearning

Prodigy has always been much more than a game - but don't take our word for it... Listen to what Dr. Melissa Dandy Walker, a digital learning specialist with Atlanta Public Schools, has to say about leveraging the power of Prodigy in her schools - keeping students engaged at zero cost. #gamebasedlearning #teachertools
Prodigy Education isn’t just a game—it’s a smart, engaging way for kids to build math skills while having fun. Dr. Melissa Dandy Walker, Ed.D shares how even parents are surprised to learn their kids are actually learning while they play. One mom was worried her daughter was too into the game—until Dr. Walker assured her that this kind of excitement about math is exactly what we want to see.

Still buzzing from an incredible #ISTELive25 conference! It was an immense honor to join the amazing Prodigy Education team. I loved presenting breakout sessions with Cassandra Haines-Riiska and Brittany Murzyn, joining an inspiring fireside chat, and even being a guest on the EduTechGuys podcast with Dr. Josh Prieur! It was a true privilege to share the positive impact Prodigy's game-based learning has had on Anna Kirchgater Elementary, especially in boosting student engagement in math and brining our school community together. Prodigy's commitment to fostering a love for learning is truly inspiring. Their platform captivates students with engaging, standards-based games while supporting teachers with easy-to-use data. The entire Prodigy Education team's dedication is unmatched—they genuinely go above and beyond. This is a company who listens and cares! I'm so honored to be included with fellow lead teachers Mitch, Scott, Taylor, Stephanie, Edward, Douglas Halsell, and Susan. You are all inspiring, and sharing our collective passion for shaping the future through education was unforgettable.
