What is MINDSpeak?
MINDSpeak is Study Smart’s student-initiated assessment for learning tool that was developed to help students communicate their strengths, needs, interests and learning preferences to their teachers and become more accountable for their learning. It also helps increase student engagement and motivation as students build stronger relationships with their teachers.
The need for Mindspeak was confirmed through evidenced-based research with 100 consultations with educators, students and parents across Canada.
