HITN Learning announced that its Cleo & Cuquin: Explore + Learn app, the result of a government-funded project, and inspired by the popular series on YouTube and Netflix, has been included in the initial list of official resources prepared by the Software & Information Industry Association’s Education’s Technology Industry Network (SIIA / ETIN) and the White House, in a new website called Tech for Learners.
The site, https://www.techforlearners.org will support educators, and families who are quarantined at home by the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Facing the unprecedented challenge of a global pandemic, which has caused the closure of most schools, parents, educators, and the community at large need to be able to count on reliable educational tools and solutions that will make the transition to virtual learning feasible and effective,” mentioned David Rust, general manager of HITN Learning and added, “Preschool presents special challenges for remote learning. The Cleo & Cuquin Explore + Learn App was designed to engage preschoolers in learning essential math skills through bilingual games and other activities; a very useful component of preschool learning during the quarantine.”
In the face of the global health crisis, HITN Learning is embracing its mission of supporting Spanish-speaking families in the US, making bilingual resources and educational solutions available to parents and educators to facilitate the transition to virtual classes at home.
