NextSteps: Reinforcement Learning

NextSteps provides reinforcement learning through our patent-pending “closed-loop” digital curriculum technology. It’s a comprehensive curriculum aligned to each student’s Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals.

​

New: Pick & Play in the app. Students (and teachers) can open the app and choose the game(s) they want to practice for one or more target skills. As students succeed, each game automatically advances to the next level—no dashboard setup required.

​

Full customization—still available. For educators who want fine-grained control, NextSteps continues to offer full configuration options. The original dashboard workflow is still available for teachers who prefer to tailor game parameters.

​

Progress monitoring for the IEP team. Teachers, specialists, and parents can track growth through our web-based dashboard, with clear reports on usage, accuracy, fluency, and skill mastery.

​

For blind/low-vision students, NextSteps addresses many areas of the Expanded Core Curriculum and is fully accessible to both screen reader users and students with usable vision. The system continually monitors progress and adapts practice to reinforce skills while keeping learners engaged.
