WONKledge
KNOWledge, the right way around.
About
WONKledge points the KNOWledge industry in the right direction. Leveraging technology to free teachers and students to teach and learn.
What we do
WONKledge builds the future of education by flipping assumptions on their head. We research automation in education for teachers, students, and administrators and we build and evaluate systems to prove it out.
Our fronts:
-
Automated workflows - a student learns best from a teacher who can speak freely and fluidly, not a robot who reads from slides. Put technology into the service of education, not the other way around.
-
AI and machine learning running in the background to silently assist teachers and students, not to get in their way. Technology works when it is invisible. Let the robots handle the robotic grind of day-to-day educational bureaucracy and administration and act as a force multiplier for teaching and learning.
-
Credential portability - let educators and students take their credentials with them wherever they choose to go. Decentralized blockchain ledgers validate academic genealogy without the institutional middleman.
