About Wireless Generation, Inc.

Wireless Generation is a 250-person education company based in Brooklyn, Dallas, and Atlanta. Its products currently reach more than three million teachers and students.

Wireless Generation pioneered the application of mobile technologies--including handheld computers and digital pens--to assessment and instruction in pre-K-12. The company listens to and observes educators in order to understand their challenges, work processes, and aspirations. Then it weaves together mobile devices, Internet technology, sophisticated data analysis and visualization, and in-person support, to create new categories of products and services for education.

The company calculates that it has saved more than five million hours of teacher time previously spent on paperwork and data entry. And it has given teachers usable tools for understanding the particular learning needs of every student, and for tuning their teaching to those needs.

Wireless Generation's collaboration with Jerry Weast and the Montgomery County Public Schools to create a new kind of "scientifically balanced" reading assessment is the subject of a recent Harvard Business School case study authored by Stacy Childress.

In collaboration with IBM, Wireless Generation is working with Jim Liebman and the NYC Department of Education to create a new kind of district-wide system for achievement reporting, data analysis, knowledge management, instructional support, and social networking among teachers and principals.
