Uluru’s regular price per student is $75/mo. However, the price for any Bronxville student is $30/mo. This price is locked in forever, including transitions into university.
Parents have a seamlesss connection to their students’ dashboards. If you have multiple students, all of their information can be accessed from one location with the simple click of a button. You no longer need to sign into multiple accounts to see what’s happening. Parents have an extra view where they can track how well students are working within the application. This gives families more insights in order to positively reinforce or reward students for their hard work.
To further remove the academic burden, parents receive automatic notifications when students begin and submit their work. Additionally, there are other notifications related to specific executive functioning strategies the student executes within the app. This includes, when they prepare assignments, break things down into smaller tasks, set their study schedules, and more. These notifications provide other opportunities to be aware of progress, and positively reinforce these important skills in the moment. Which is most effective way to help students to internalize new skills.
Uluru seamlessly integrates with most popular learning management systems (LMS), including Google Classroom. This means Uluru is able to integrate executive function guidance directly in a students’ homework routine, every time they are working. This consistency is unmatched, and is the best way for students to build the crucial skills necessary to build agency and motivation. If parents have students at other schools that use a different LMS, they can also access that students assignment information from the same dashboard.
One of the many exciting features is Uluru’s guidance in helping students plan their study schedule each day by prioritizing and sequencing their tasks, setting their study blocks, and estimating time. Students love the independence, parents love not helicoptering. All you need to do is be their biggest cheerleader, not their work police.
Students are encouraged to think about their goals, and plan accordingly. Then it helps them monitor their progress, during and after assignments. Parents are quietly kept in the loop as well, and they can step in to help if needed. If a student doesn’t meet a particular time goal, for example, Uluru will suggest they give themselves more time the next study session. This encouragement to monitor progress is essential for students to build greater self-awareness over time.
Time management is one of the foundational self-regulation skills all students (and adults ;)) need. One of the first things students master is consistently looking at their work load, and determining the amount of time needed to complete a given amount of work. The more students engage with Uluru, the better it adapts and encourages students to make better decisions. It’s almost like a video game, but it’s for school, and all parents need to do is support and motivate. This will help students internalize these skills even faster!
Uluru is constantly updating with new features, and your membership ensures you’ll automatically receive all updates into the future.
