Insights & Ideas for Online Teaching
Sophia makes it easier than ever to flip your classroom with our free teacher tools for blended learning. Transform your classroom into an active learning environment with our groups, quizzes, and tutorials features. You can also track student progress every step of the way with our data and analytics. Additionally, we offer awesome ways to continue your professional development.
And it’s all free.
Transform your classroom with fresh content, boost your interactive course materials, create tutorials, or flip your classroom with the latest and greatest Sophia resources.
Start by creating a group. Gathering your students in private groups settings is a great way to keep everyone connected while letting them access lessons, ask questions and get their chat on.
Next, design amazing tutorials for your class with Sophia’s lesson-building tools. Grab their attention with text, images, audio, video, screencasts – or anything else you dream up. You can create playlists from your own content or mix and match from more than 37,000 of our tutorials.
Go ahead and create your own quizzes, or use our formative assessment quizzing tool. It's a handy way to save instructional time and monitor your class's progress with immediate, useful feedback.
Our powerful analytics let you track student performance in real time, at the concept level, so you can better understand what's working for them and where they need more help. The more you know about your students, the better you're able to meet their individual needs and help boost their achievement.
Challenge gifted students or help those who are struggling with Sophia Pathways. Our Pathways use Sophia's Many Ways model that offers multiple teaching styles for every concept. Students can take quizzes to help them and you monitor their progress as they complete each pathway. Whether you're building an after-school enrichment program or a credit recovery course, we have everything you need to boost achievement.
Experience the power of technology by putting best practices into action as you earn CEUs through Sophia's professional development programs.
Flipping your classroom is simple, and our certification program lets you get certified quickly and easily. Streamline your classes and get more time for one-on-one learning opportunities by using video tutorials instead of traditional homework and lectures.
What's a Flipped Classroom?

Use the latest and greatest trends in educational technology to easily build and manage an integrated online classroom to use in a traditional, flipped or blended environment. We'll show you how to use data to teach and reach all students, and how to use groups to create, share, and organize class curriculum.
What teachers are saying about Sophia.
Sophia lets students study at their own pace and videos are accessible from most electronic devices. Some of my students watch my videos on their iPod Touches while traveling to and from extracurricular activities.
Sophia gives me more class-time to do projects that really take learning to a deeper level of understanding. Kids do better on tests, not because they can answer test questions well, but because they actually have the knowledge to do the math.
Society is changing and becoming more technologically advanced. It is nice to be able to have a combination of face-to-face interaction with enhancements like Sophia. I've seen a 20% decline in the number of students who drop or fail my class.
