ISmart approved as member of The Social Stock Exchange

-

The Social Stock Exchange, society’s market for impact investing, has announced that iSmart has been approved as a member following the ratificati­on of its impact report by the independen­t Admissions Panel.

iSmart is an inclusive educationa­l platform to support students of all ages with learning difficulti­es (dyslexia, dyscalculi­a, dysgraphia, autism, ADHD and mild cognitive disability). Our products integrate with tablets and mobiles to bring together schools, teachers, parents, psychologi­sts and students. iSmart comes in three versions: iSmart Home, Class and School.

iSmart is developed in Malta by a dynamic team that has worked in educationa­l technology for several years. The start-up, which is currently growing and being accepted as a member by the Social Stock Exchange, firmly positions iSmart as a social enter- prise that has a positive impact on society. The company is currently raising finance in order to continue adding more functional­ities to its products.

One can find many apps for students with learning difficulti­es, however most of them are fragmented and cannot be used in an inclusive setting. With iSmart the teacher/learning support teacher can turn on and off features needed by the student. Features include: text-to-speech, speechto-text, letter and number colouring, text adaptation, reading ruler and mind mapping.

Users can try out the app on Android devices (iOS and Windows versions are coming out soon) by signing up for a Free account on www.getismart.com.

iSmart Home comes with a 14day trial while the iSmart Class comes with a 60-day trial. iSmart School will be launched later on this year.
