Why You Should Choose Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning
Here's answers to most frequently asked questions that help you choose the right solution.
1
How exactly will Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning help Students?
Over 75% of classrooms have students with knowledge gaps that span across multiple grade levels. Teachers simply don't have the time, patience and data to fill these knowledge gaps for each and every student on a daily basis.
Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning meets every student exactly where he/she is in every concept, ensuring they receive the right level of practice, instruction, scaffolding and assessment - this happens in real-time and automatically. Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning auto-detects knowledge gaps in real-time and scaffolds to prerequisite skills (at or below grade level) when necessary to help each student catch up on exactly what they need to move ahead.
As a result, students continuously receive the right level of support at exactly the right time to overcome all learning gaps and master every concept in their path.

How exactly will Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning help Teachers?
Over 75% of classrooms have students with knowledge gaps that span across multiple grade levels. Yet, most teachers have resources and knowledge to address only one grade level. Teachers simply can't muster the time, patience, data, and recall needed to offer the level of support needed to each and every student on a daily basis.
That�s why, at Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning, we built a powerful data-driven platform to deliver personalized scaffolding and instruction to help each and every student move ahead and reach their full potential. As a result, students continuously receive the right level of support at exactly the right time to overcome all learning gaps and master every concept in their path.
Teachers gain powerful insights and data that enable them to teach smarter, not harder! Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning offers teachers a smarter way to predict which concepts need re-teaching and which students need intervention. As a result, teachers save valuable time that they can use to focus on more important tasks such as what to teach, when to intervene and which students to rescue from failing.

How exactly will Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning deliver Personalized Learning?
Traditionally, products claiming personalized learning capabilities identify a student's level of proficiency in a subject matter only at a single point in time and only by using a fixed number of questions (with a placement test, knowledge check, quiz, assessment etc.). Then, it will seek to develop a curriculum to fill the identified gaps of knowledge. In such single-point adaptive solutions, the curriculum remains static and ignores students' ongoing progress and struggles.
Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning, however, enables continuous adaptivity to meet each student's unique needs in real-time. Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning analyzes each student response in real-time taking into account their latest proficiency and will adjust the rigor (number of questions to practice and their respective depth of knowledge) and adjust the learning path (the next concept to learn).
In other words, Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning's adaptive learning process is dynamic and thereby continuously adapting to each student's unique needs and adjusting the learning path in real-time to achieve mastery in the desired concepts. Personalized learning on Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning is made possible by the combined power of data-driven insights and mastery-based spiral learning techniques. As a result, students receive learning that is continuously personalized with the right level of scaffolding at exactly the right time to overcome all learning gaps and to enable mastery in every concept.

Do teachers have flexibility in how they can use Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning?
At Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning, we believe each classroom is unique and hence we offer teachers the utmost flexibility and customization so they can tailor Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning in unique ways to meet their students' needs. Teachers have the flexibility to implement our fully automated Adaptive process or their own teacher-driven Targeted process or a mix of both models (hybrid) to deliver a very powerful differentiation model for their students. Here are the most common use cases and implementation models:
Mastery-Based Classrooms: One or more teachers teach to groups of students based on their specific needs. Teachers leverage our pre-built learning paths and also design their own custom learning paths.
Traditional Classrooms: One teacher per classroom. Instruction is defined by curriculum maps and pacing guides. Teachers design their own custom learning paths and add to them as they progress during the school year.
Technology-Infused Classrooms: Students use Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning in a lab setting driven by a secondary teacher. Instruction is assumed by the primary teacher (who may or may not be using Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning). Our pre-built learning paths are used in this scenario.
After-School Classrooms: Students use Mosaic Adaptive Academic Learning in an after-school setting driven by a secondary teacher who may or may not be the primary teacher providing the student with direct instruction. Our pre-built learning paths are used in this scenario.
