Our Product
Navigate Learning
We're developing a learning navigator that provides real-time data to help students understand where they are and how to reach their goals. We blend powerful assessments and analytics with a catalog of learning resources to help teachers track student progress and understanding and meet the needs of every student.

Navigate learning 24/7
With Gooru, students study at their own pace, working on learning activities collaboratively and independently. Instant feedback on assessments give students data on their effort and performance on specific skills. This information prompts student reflection on their progress, encouraging growth mindset and agency. Students can accelerate to new topics or review underdeveloped concepts by seeking help from their peers, teacher, or digital resources curated for the course.

Facilitate Cooperative Learning
Personalized learning can be collaborative too! Teams can motivate individuals to reach their goals . Blending online and offline interactions, teachers use Gooru to implement a practice of teamwork in a classroom that encourages student interaction and engagement as well as student achievement. With 30 years of research from the John's Hopkins University School of Education, cooperative learning is a research-based practice that leverages student engagement with other students to increase cognitive and social and emotional development. We're ready for the next 30 years with an easy-to-use online tool to enable cooperative learning.
