Castle Companion: A student mobile app

Castle Companion represents the potential next step in Castle Learning's evolution, embracing the widespread use of mobile devices among students. With students comfortable being mobile, it's time to leverage this trend to enhance learning while honing foundational skills. From mastering math facts to expanding vocabulary and delving into the Science of Reading, Castle Companion *could offer drill and skill practice in key areas. What sets it apart is its student-led design, empowering learners to take charge of their academic journey. Imagine the benefits of students dedicating just 15-20 minutes each night to Castle Companion, focusing on specific topics or standards, with teachers reviewing reports for grading based on completion. It's a vision of learning that puts students in control and fosters their academic success.

    I like this idea. Is there a way to enhance this potential to keep a student from handing off their phone for someone else to complete their work?

    streamline the process for self assigned / created assignments for students to do practice work. Students tell me that they find the process too convoluted in the current website.
