    School Tools / The Reviews Are In thumbnail
      To help educators make informed decisions about the software they use, the nonprofit CommonSense Media has compiled a database of ratings and reviews of ed-tech products and tools. The evaluations, conducted by a team of educators, are based on a "15-point rubric developed specifically to evaluate the learning potential of digital tools." The product listings can be sorted by subject, grade level, skills, and instructional purpose. In addition to a starred rating, each listing includes a description of the tool's potentials uses, a breakdown of pros and cons, and reviews submitted by educators.

      EL’s experienced team of writers and editors produces Educational Leadership magazine, an award-winning publication that reaches hundreds of thousands of K-12 educators and leaders each year. Our work directly supports the mission of ASCD: To empower educators to achieve excellence in learning, teaching, and leading so that every child is healthy, safe, engaged, supported, and challenged.
