Description of Transform
Why use Transform?
There are many different ways that children learn. Some prefer reading material, others prefer visual presentations. Transform gives you the ability to easily make dynamic content that will excite your students.
Further, by joining the Transform Community you can login and get access to a wide range of educational activities, in many curriculum areas and grade levels, created by other educators. You can use these Transform activities “as-is” or modify them to better suit your needs. Aren’t other educators the best source of exciting educational content ?
