This App Is Helping Teachers Reinforce Positive Student Behavior

Panorama Education focuses on improving educational outcomes by providing data-driven insights into student performance and well-being. Their mobile app leverages research on behavior-specific praise and other positive behavior supports, offering teachers a practical way to encourage and track positive student behaviors in real time.

The Challenge

1. Lack of Real-Time Behavioral Tracking Educators needed a user-friendly way to record and respond to both positive and negative student behaviors on the spot.
2. Difficulty Translating Research Into Practice While behavior-specific praise is proven effective, many teachers struggled to incorporate it consistently in busy classrooms.
3. Limited Data for Informed Decision-Making Without clear analytics, educators found it hard to identify trends or measure the impact of interventions over time.
4. Maintaining Student Engagement & Well-Being In an era where students face diverse academic and emotional challenges, schools needed a more holistic approach to engagement and development.
