Parlay x FCL
An education solution for a better tomorrow.
There’s no question that the start to 2022 has been rough on everyone. Our passion and focus has and always will lie with education professionals. We find ourselves asking: How can we be of service in this moment?; How can we make this demanding, frustrating, and exhausting time easier for teachers, and rewarding for students?
As we move forward more committed to our mission of advancing teacher practice and elevating learning experiences and opportunities for all - we’re excited to introduce our newest partner, Parlay.
Parlay, a Canadian company, has created a learning platform tool for rich class discussions (BOTH in-person and online), best suited for grades 5-12, specifically instruction in language arts, social studies, science, history, and business. Discussions on Parlay are deeply meaningful, inclusive and data-driven, incorporating research backed practices that teach critical thinking and communication skills, while making it easier for teachers to measure, assess and give feedback to students.
“FCL is proud to partner with Parlay to provide an instructional tool that is aligned to the Ontario curriculum, alongside of a supportive teacher community that will make it easy for teachers (grade 5-12) to use in their classrooms right away. And the best part of this instructional tool is that it is a lot of fun!”
—Jeff Hainbuch - Sr. Director, Growth and Development, FCL
We’ve heard consistently from leadership across Ontario that one of the greatest challenges in the current learning environment is that classroom teachers, especially when teaching online, are finding it difficult to connect with, engage and motivate their students. Parlay meets that challenge head on while providing students with the skills to succeed in the future.
“We are in a unique moment in time for public education in Ontario, and the window to help reimagine the classroom experience for the future is wide open. There's nothing more valuable to us than working directly with students and teachers, so we are excited to help lighten the load for educators, learn, improve, and work together to move education forward after a difficult couple of years.”
—Bobby McDonald - Founder and CEO, Parlay
In celebration of this new partnership, and in support of educators across Ontario, we’re offering an incredible opportunity to implement Parlay into your classroom, free of charge, fully supported by our team for the remainder of this school year. It’s our way of saying thank you and we’re here for you.
