Constructivist Toolkit
The Constructivist Toolkit, LLC collaborated with MorrisCooke to help connect visual and functional designs to both current educational research and the practical realities of school settings. While not exclusively design to be used in schools, the app was designed to help the Constructivist Toolkit's founder, Reshan Richards, explore the intersection of assessment, multimedia, and mobile technology as part of his dissertation research. Reshan is a doctoral candidate at Teachers College, Columbia University where he also received his B.A. He has an Ed.M from Harvard University and is currently the Director of Educational Technology at a school in New Jersey.
