At the heart of Headsprout's learning programs is a sophisticated, patented, instructional technology that ensures our programs are scientifically built, tested, redesigned and retested, and result in the outcomes the programs were designed to achieve. This Sprout Learning™ Technology ensures children learn the skills important to academic success.
Headsprout products are powered by Sprout Learning™ Technology. This means the:
• Teaching methods are researched-based and research-derived.
• Teaching methods are well defined. • Teaching methods are formulated as testable procedures. • Teaching methods are based on data. • Teaching routines are specifically designed for teaching in interactive environments. • Performance and progress are continuously tracked to make the program responsive to all learners. • Teaching routines are continually updated based upon measurable outcomes with learners. |

| Headsprout programs are based on real results with real kids - initially with hundreds of children in our learning labs in Seattle, and then with thousands more in homes and schools across the U.S and the world. Headsprout's educators and learning scientists spent years developing and testing our early reading programs, ensuring that each component of instruction works. We've measured and tested each instructional interaction, redesigning and retesting as needed, until our learners consistently showed us that the instruction works. Sprout Learning Technology is based on Headsprout's own model of "generative instruction." A careful sequence of procedures establishes key, component skills. Practice is then provided for those skills and finally new learning opportunities are introduced that encourage the student to combine these skills into more complex skills with little additional instruction. |
