Butterfile: A New Way to Teach, A New Way to Learn

The process of learning is changing, and Internet information has been a catalyst of this change.  Students today do not use encyclopedia reference material to research a topic; they “Google.” Kids are not reviewing film strips or renting movies, they download videos instantly from YouTube to learn about a topic discussed in class.  To date, these have been unstructured actions taken by students to use the latest technologies to complete tasks that a teacher may assign.

A new way of learning and teaching has arrived.  Butterfile provides a secure, structured environment to capture and share a rich learning experience and provide students and teachers with the ability to reuse the material to aid in the education of others, around the world.

Butterfile uses an SaaS (Software as a Service)-based software model to bring all of the tools teachers use into an environment in which students like to learn.  It is a huge leap forward from other platforms on the market today.

The Butterfile platform centralizes a set of features so teachers and students are not jumping between programs to complete tasks related to their school experience.  They spend time learning through rich videos and student collaboration, with less time spent trying to make technology work.

Just look at some of the features Butterfile provides…

• File Management
  • Documents
  • PDFs
  • Videos
  • Images
• Video Chat
• Blogs
• Wikis
• Whiteboards
• Homework
• Calendar
• School Announcements
• Parent Portal

Butterfile will revolutionize the way children learn and teachers teach.  Butterfile will reinvigorate learning with inquiries, simulations, videos, and debates, allowing students to encounter big ideas in ways that connect and peak interest in any topic or subject they chose.
