San Carlos, CA (PRWEB) November 03, 2015 -- Education Elements, developer of the leading personalized learning platform, Highlight, today announced new additions to its curated partner catalog: Academic Merit, OpenEd and Splash Math. These providers join the best-in-class academic content providers already available through Highlight, which provides both single sign-on access and actionable data to students, teachers and administrators across the country.
Digital content providers in Education Elements’ curated partner catalog deliver a fully personalized instructional experience for students and educators. They combine the best in pedagogical excellence and a positive impact on student outcomes, with Cloud-based technological infrastructure necessary for district-wide deployments. Partners in the catalog get introductions to some of the top districts in the country and an assurance that their products will be used in high fidelity implementations that lead to student achievement and engagement and teacher satisfaction. Equally important, becoming an Education Elements partner does not cost anything for developers.
"Partnering with EE has helped add district partnerships and ensures high fidelity implementation of STEMscopes." said Vernon Johnson, CEO of Accelerate Learning Inc. “Ed Elements’ content recommendations are highly respected by the districts. In addition, our STEMscopes PreK-12 digital curriculum integration with Highlight ensures that students and teachers can easily and securely access all of their content and focus on learning.”
Education Elements Founder and CEO, Anthony Kim, said “In the past five years we have continued to grow our catalog while maintaining our focus on only the best-in-class digital content providers and tools for students. We are proud to announce the newest partners and know they will bring value to the districts we support.”
The full list of content partners is available on the Education Elements website.
In addition to adding new partners, Education Elements continues to make joining the Highlight ecosystem easier for districts and providers. Today Ed Elements announced the availability of its Integration Development Kit (IDK), the fastest way to securely integrate digital content with any Student Information Systems (SIS) and enable a single-click access to any integrated content provider for students and educators. Based on the enterprise-class cloud integration technology by Informatica Corporation, the world’s number one independent provider of data integration software, Ed Elements’ IDK allows for fast, simple, standardized and secure integration of any educational content with Highlight.
“We loved working with the IDK. It took us only two weeks to write the integration code”, said Joy Deep Nath, Co-Founder of Splash Math. “And it is free! Our district customers can take advantage of SplashMath’s award-winning content, without any hidden fees imposed by other integration platforms”.
Education Elements’ IDK is available to all of its catalog partners and offers:

“Our Informatica-based infrastructure and IDK-based partner integrations allow school administrators to kick-back and relax, while Education Elements does all the work of setting up accounts and provisioning,” said Kim. “Every partner who develops to the IDK is ensured the high quality and accurate student and class information necessary for digital content to have a significant and positive impact on student outcomes.”
