What is Navigated Learning (NL)
What is Navigated Learning (NL)
Learning is complex, learners are diverse, and ecosystems are intricate. Gooru understands that school districts are committed to equity and equal access to results. In order for schools to achieve excellence for all learners, regardless of their starting location, learning abilities, and cultural backgrounds, they need to have transparent insight into their students' knowledge gaps and strengths, portfolio of learning activities, and learning preferences. Once this is achieved all stakeholders in the learning ecosystem can make in-the-moment, data informed decisions because they will be able to see where each learner is in their knowledge, skills, and mindsets. Schools need stakeholders to have real-time data about their students’ efforts and outcomes, so that everyone in the learning community can best support efforts for strong learning outcomes for all students. Gooru’s Navigator course addresses this issue and bridges the distance between teachers, guardians, students, and administrators.

While independent learners and teachers could just start using Navigator simply by signing up, as a content producer you may already have users, content and even a platform. Therefore you may want to move your content across, or integrate Navigator into your existing products. For this our growing community have developed a number of tools. To gain access to these specialist tools you will either need to setup your own instance on your own servers, or have us host it for you. and we have several options to guide your decision. One great benefit as a content contributor, all of these tools are Free! :) This is a way for our community to say thank you

What are the general implementation Steps
What are the general implementation Steps
Roster Your Students, Teachers, and Administrators - Currently we offer onboarding users using single sign on with IMS Global OneRoster, ClassLink, Gmail, and WS Federation. Google Classroom and Clever Integrations are also coming soon.
Locate Your Learner - We provide flexibility in your learners’ starting locations. Districts can use existing NWEA or other standardized test scores, create a quick diagnostic, allow for teacher input, or use an approximation based on grade level to provide the starting location for their users.
Create or Access District Data Lake (Optional and at additional Costs) - Gooru can integrate with an already established district or school data lake or create one for you. This allows the raw data from a variety of 3rd party tools and apps to be gathered and analyzed in one tool, Mission Control. School districts can opt into this feature at no additional cost.
Training Sessions - We recommend atleast two training sessions per year to our districts. Our first training session will give teachers and administrators an overview and understanding of Navigator tools and how to use them. The second training happens two weeks later to address questions, concerns, and explore how to get the most out of Navigator. Please note that due to the current pandemic, all training sessions are remote and conducted over video chat.
Customize Navigator Learning Maps - Math Navigator has a built in scope and sequence that allows for Navigated Learning, but districts can choose to align our framework to their curriculum needs and standards. Districts can provide Gooru with their custom scope and sequence or choose from a publicly available option.
