“Welcome to Stride Learning. Stride Learning is a mentoring center for students with ADD, ADHD and other executive functioning needs who might need a little extra help mastering organization and various school subjects. We set out to create an app that the students and mentors would use as a tool to encourage organization, foster communication, and alleviate some of the stress that comes with planning a busy school schedule. Our goal specifically is to help streamline the planning and communication tools that are needed for both mentors and students that are a part of the program.
As a student, you can create a profile that will display certain scholastic information such as your grade, school, email and more. You can then start messaging your personal mentors about anything school related. Questions about homework, assignments, setting up extra tutoring sessions, or anything that you may need a little extra help with. And finally, as a busy student, it is helpful to have a space to write down weekly assignments, upcoming exams, or to set aside time for studying. The planning page can do all that. With its three week spread students have the ability to set tasks for themselves during the current week or for the upcoming week and can also roll back to last week to make sure they didn’t miss anything important. They can set the day of the week that the task needs to be completed, which week, as well as a personalized note that describes what exactly they need to do, and with that, the journey throughout the Stride Learning App begins.
Now as a mentor, you have all the same views as a student but since one mentor can be assigned to multiple different students, you have the ability to switch between your various students to check in on each unique checklist. You can monitor assignment progress, maintain each student’s checklist, and remind them about important upcoming tasks.
Our goal for the Stride Learning app was to create an all-in-one app that combines all the necessary tasks that a Stride student uses on a daily basis to be successful. Planning, communication, and organization are skills that any student needs to be successful. By combining all of this into a singular application, we hope to alleviate some of the stress that can come from using multiple apps, each for a different reason. We want to provide a vehicle for success by creating this app and we hope to encourage every single Stride student to enjoy the sense of organization that our app provides.”
