Learner agency and engagement
How do I engage students to own their learning, while still ensuring they get the guidance and content they need for success?
Headrush delivers student-led workflows, flexibility in design,
and personalized learning management.
Student-led workflows
Students and teams can design their learning
Students can propose and design their own learning experiences using smart scaffolding to support quality process, iterative design, and project management.
Students start with the end in mind
Students can search and align learning outcomes to their work, based on their target plan, keeping expectations transparent and reinforcing meaning.
Students manage their own work
Students can prioritize their own expectations, deadlines, and subtasks in their calendar or via their centralized task board.
Flexibility in design
Flexible Task Boards
Visual Task Boards allow teachers to design learning the way they want, with common tasks and different deliverables, while enabling new and different ways to manage learning.
Remix and Reuse
Parts and pieces can easily be copied from one place to another, encouraging and enabling content, performance tasks, and plans to be used in many ways and in all shapes and sizes.
Collaboration across silos
Teachers across subject areas can work together to design meaningful experiences for learners and add learners to any project as co-designers.
Personalized learning management
Support the whole student
See across all student learning, embrace collaborative cross-curricular teaching, and manage student-led personal learning plans.
Track progress individually
Individualized learning goals along with differentiated tasks make personalizing student work and assessment manageable.
Embrace Independent paths of study
Stimulate interest, deep learning, and support post secondary certifications by curating a warehouse of independent paths of study in which students can engage.
"Headrush is a game-changer for JAG students, who can use the platform to easily access projects, scholarships, job opportunities, employer connections and more. It’s also a valuable resource for JAG Specialists (teachers), providing a warehouse of ready-made content and a playlist of projects for them to utilize. That way, busy Specialists can spend less time developing content and more time engaging with their students."

"Our program at Avalon wouldn’t be possible without HEADRUSH-- HEADRUSH is responsive, intuitive, and helps students own their learning in real-time. The team at HEADRUSH has been wonderful to work with; Updates keep rolling out as direct responses to feedback from our students, and it has been so empowering for them to know that their voice matters."
Program Coordinator —Avalon
"A highlight for our students has been how HEADRUSH allows them to see where they’re at with their learning targets and graduation requirements, along with the functions where both educators and students can exchange comments, and then the implementation of different types of project proposals. These are the features that really help students understand what they are doing on a big picture level."

"Kudos to the HEADRUSH crew! Every step of the way we communicate back and forth with the HEADRUSH team to see what’s new and how we can best integrate HEADRUSH. Our advisors are all very complimentary about how smoothly the students have transitioned to HEADRUSH."
Advisor & Co-Director —Edvisions Off-Campus
"What HEADRUSH has done for us is created a much more intuitive, user-friendly interface that can upload results and embed student work/research right within the platform... It keeps students on track, organized and simplified things in a sleek way."
