Product Index > Courseware > Fishtree
Fishtree offers an adaptive courseware authoring platform to build lessons or courses from diverse sources. The cloud-based product includes a suite of collaboration tools, including discussion boards tied to specific subjects. Fishtree adapts recommendations for students based on their “Learning DNA,” a profile that includes their interactions with content and other students, as well as assessments. Instructors have access to dashboards and can draw on a library with open educational resources, textbooks and news. They can use the courseware when teaching in fully online, blended or face-to-face formats.
Fishtree’s adaptive functionality considers factors such as learner confidence level and self-assessments, time to complete learning exercises, performance on questions, learning style preference, mastery of prior learning objectives, past performance of students with a similar learning profile and content difficulty. Instructors can add external content, override the courseware’s grading policies, allow students to skip content that the technology does not think the student has mastered, and give individual students different assignments.
