PowerTools DWA vs ThinkPlayful

PowerTools by Tools of the Mind® is an innovative literacy learning platform based on decades of research on the neuroscience of learning and literacy development. The PowerTools DWA iPad application was designed from the ground up to support children’s early literacy development, by enabling detailed realtime capture of children's writing and drawing together with audio recording and teacher scaffolding information. These data are then displayed on a PowerTools dashboard for teachers and literacy specialists, with classroom and child level data and analytics to help teachers improve instruction, track children’s progress, and provide targeted individual scaffolding to each student. Please note: In order to use the PowerTools DWA app, users must have a current contract with Tools of the Mind that includes access to the PowerTools Literacy Learning Platform.
