About Kidport

Kidport is an Internet-based educational service designed to help K-8 students excel in school. It provides a unique, multi-step program to create empowered learners, not simply good students.

The major components of Kidport as shown in the diagram above include:

• Coherent Learning System: Think-and-Learn Modules
• Curriculum-based Content : Workbook Modules and Reference Library—What Kids need to Learn
• Compelling Experience : Project Modules—What Kids Love
• Learning Processes : Learning Styles—How Kids Learn

Kidport is designed around "Think-and-Learn" modules which make students aware of the thinking skills they need to use while they are learning. The thinking and learning skills are tied to curriculum content to help students transfer the thinking skills to their homework. These interactive modules are also designed to help students learn the required K-8 materials. Projects are integrated into the learning modules to provide compelling real-world experiences and applications. Integrated reference materials provide the necessary background for Kidport activities and help with other school projects.

The Curriculum content is designed with a "Traps-and-Gaps" emphasis which focuses on areas where students have problems. These problem areas may be due to the difficult concepts or misconceptions (traps), or material that is not covered thoroughly in school (gaps).
