Prism vs VELA Events

Learning happens everywhere. Prism makes it visible. Prism is a portfolio platform for families and educators who believe learning isn't confined to curriculum. Whether you're homeschooling, unschooling, running a microschool, or simply want to document your child's unique journey—Prism helps you capture what matters and see what emerges. CAPTURE IN SECONDS Snap a photo, add a sentence. That's it. Prism is designed for real life—quick captures when inspiration strikes, or deeper reflections when you have time. SURFACE LEARNING SIGNALS Prism identifies the subjects, skills, and interests embedded in everyday moments. Over time, patterns emerge—revealing a rich picture of how your learner grows. BUILD PORTABLE PORTFOLIOS Learning from home, school, co-ops, and community all lives in one place. Multiple educators can contribute, but families always own the data. When your child moves on, their portfolio travels with them. GENERATE TRANSCRIPTS & PERSONALIZED RESOURCES Need documentation for evaluators, colleges, or yourself? Prism translates authentic learning into formats the world recognizes—without forcing you to teach to arbitrary standards. Get strewing suggestions tailored to each Learner so you can continue to support the interests and skills that are emerging from their unique journey. DESIGNED FOR: • Homeschooling families • Unschoolers and self-directed learners • Microschools and forest schools • Learning co-ops and pods • Anyone who believes learning is bigger than school Learning is already happening. Prism helps you see it.
