Knewton

Knewton has an adaptive learning engine, customizing educational content to meet the individual needs of each student.

Whereas textbooks and other traditional content vehicles provide the same material to every student, Knewton dynamically matches lessons, videos, and practice problems to each student’s ideal learning arc. Constant assessment across dimensions such as difficulty, frequency, and medium maximizes learning efficiency and concept mastery.

Knewton’s test prep courses for the GMAT, LSAT, SAT, and GRE bring the brightest and most experienced teachers directly to students worldwide via a live and on-demand online video classroom. The Knewton platform also powers third-party educational content from major publishers, corporations, and other organizations.
