Powerful Stories.

"Students love [Ripple Effects]! When I asked what the students liked about it, they shared how they enjoyed learning about topics they struggled with. They also like how it is a private way to write about their feelings and work through them. What I like about [Ripple Effects] is that each topic has a student their age who can relate to what they are going through. Many kids feel alone when going through circumstances, but with Ripple Effects, you don’t feel alone."

"Destination Knowledge's customer service is number one, and the staff is very professional, caring, and diligent. I am very blessed and fortunate that my district supervisor chose such an excellent company to work with and implement Ripple Effects. Despite the distance, Destination Knowledge's customer service has always been there for me since we started implementing Ripple Effects. Thank you to Destination Knowledge's customer service."

"Ripple Effects has made an impact on our social skills time in the classroom. Our emotionally disabled students can relate to many topics and enjoy the videos. This program has opened doors to great strategies for conflict and also many valuable lessons. The students enjoy the quizzes and it has challenged them to have peer discussions. Thank you for this interactive program with great topics !!"

“I have seen my students make great gains in decoding and comprehension skills. One student in particular increased two reading levels in 6 months! I’ve seen the difference MindPlay makes in those students that really want to learn. It provides an individualized way of filling foundational gaps in a very structured and systematic way. The reports allow me to see the progress that each student is making as well as the skills they are struggling with.”

"We are in love with Bouncy the Service Dog."

“I love MindPlay more and more each year! I truly believe it is a powerful tool targeting every literacy skill area."

“This [Ripple Effects] is a great tool that helps clinicians identify problematic areas or traumatic events children have gone through. When I observe a student losing their self-control, I immediately ask them to do Ripple Effects. Some of them ask me to do Ripple Effects when they are mad (which it’s a great thing).”

"MindPlay improved my students’ speech and taught many of them to read. I am blown away at how effective of a reading program it is. MindPlay is changing and improving the kids’ lives and their families. The impact of one kid learning how to read is priceless and hard to put into words."

"Ascend Math has given me the opportunity to see where students really are and help them at their pace instead of holding an entire classroom back. It has helped students reach their goals in a much more tangible workspace."

"In January 2019, we put all Level I students, based on the Florida Standards Assessment (FSA), and our bottom 25 percent students on MindPlay Virtual Reading Coach (MindPlay). I am a math teacher and do not have the resources to remediate reading for these students. I discovered that MindPlay has everything a teacher needs to teach struggling students to read fluently. The program does it all!"

"The best part about MindPlay is that it works; and my students settle-in, get quiet, and stay engaged! They want to grow in reading, and the program helps them do it!"

"The customer service is on point. Just phenomenal. Whenever I have a question, it is answered speedily and with courtesy. Thank you Destination Knowledge for allowing the use of these programs for my students."

"The MindPlay program in essence, runs itself. MindPlay’s pre-assessment feature, the organization/order of the material being taught, and the awards handed out are what I like most about MindPlay. It finds the baseline for each child and it customizes its lessons and pace to the child’s needs. Just wonderful."

“Just so you know, most vendors don’t offer this level of support and can I please just tell you that it is AMAZING and greatly appreciated!!!”

“Thank you so much Patty for all your patience and hard work. I love working with you. You are by far the fastest and most professional website person I have ever worked with.”

"Your program [Ascend Math] has done so much for my students, I could not help, but to share."
