Big Announcement Revealed!

In a national survey last summer, 88% of teachers shared that they would use their interactive technologies more often if they were provided with more content. This was no surprise to us at StarrMatica. As a company of teachers, we know that planning time is limited, so it has been our goal since StarrMatica began to provide our fellow colleagues with a library of interactive content that would save them time and effort while still retaining choice in the resources they use. We believe that instead of spending hours surfing the Internet for interactive content, teachers should be able to quickly find quality resources so they can spend their planning time designing lessons that encourage problem solving and higher order thinking skills utilizing those resources.

We have been sharing our philosophy with like-minded technology companies, and as a result, big news has been brewing over here at StarrMatica all summer. I am elated to finally be able to share it! Drum roll please……………………………


We have partnered with eInstruction to provide free interactive content to classrooms nationwide!

What does this mean for you?
