The U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona warns, “It’s essential we focus on empowering teachers to become designers of active learning, using technology in effective ways to engage and inspire students.” Monarch responds directly by compiling oodles of learning resources: eBooks, Lesson Plans, Activities, Teacher Guides, Videos, Articles, Games, Learning modules, and more in a ready-to-execute fashion.

MONARCH bridges the digital access divide and provides the “equitable access to connectivity, devices, and digital content” the National Ed Tech Plan - Office of Educational Technology (NETP) identifies as needed right now.
Teachers today who embrace tech like it’s a third thumb really boost learning. MONARCH makes it easy for teachers everywhere to provide uber-engaging tech learning with the STEM targets or reading level identifiers needed to change tier 2, tier 3 students into success story after success story.
MONARCH is that online, searchable creative, engaged learning factory meets critical-thinking lessons powerhouse at the ready.
With MONARCH, teacher will ensure equitable access through tech on student devices with immediate accessibility in the classroom and be able to differentiate with ease.
- Need to empower students?
- Need to expand learning beyond the confines of the traditional classroom?
- Need to tailor self-directed learning?
- Need to create learning experiences to individual student needs?
- Need to support students with disabilities?
There is one place, one searchable space, to turn to: MONARCH.
As the 2024 NETP plan identified three key divides that needed to be bridged to better support teaching and learning,Monarch provides that three-tiered solution:
- Digital Use: DISCOVER, seek, and find opportunities to improve how students interact and engage with technology. Enhance learning using dynamic applications of technology to explore, create, and engage in critical analysis of academic content and knowledge. It makes eBooks, Lesson Plans, Activities, Teacher Guides, Videos, Articles, Games, Learning modules, and more searchable.
- Digital Design: CONNECT and provide an opportunities-gathering-space where educators may expand learning and design learning experiences that are enhanced by technology; and
- Digital Access: ENGAGE students and educators. Help them gain equitable access to educational technology: connectivity, devices, and digital content and help teach accessibility and digital health, safety, and citizenship with easy ways to differentiate.
Today, it has transformed into a one-search solution that addresses all three divides and serves them up in one awesome bundle of ‘edu-gameology’ for targeting student success.
Just like the Monarch butterfly migrates and flies with lofty wings, some 3,000 miles home annually, teacher are in the classroom, doing whatever it takes to help engage learners, improve outcomes, and now Monarch will help. Teachers can use MONARCH to mitigate learning losses and migrate into a higher level of technology, helping them curate a teaming factory of help for teachers, specialists, and students.
