Evolve your learning culture
How can I keep my teachers learning and normalize a culture of flexibility while respecting norms and procedures?
Headrush reinforces your learning model, so you can meet adult learners where they are, and dissolve the industrial model without the chaos.
Reinforce your Learning Model
Warehouse of templates
Common scaffolded approaches allow groups to codify expectations around a purpose while also still leaving enough flexibility for adaptation.
Dynamic assessment
Showcase more than just content acquisition! Multiple learning targets sets and a variety of ways to summarize/report about a learning helps reinforce the benefits of what you do different than the industrial model of education.
Guest Assessment
External audiences heighten authenticity of learning and provide a role for the community to enrich the student experience. Headrush makes this easy with registration-free guest assessment.
Meet [adult] Learners where they are
Flexible Task Boards
Task Boards in Headrush allow teachers to design [adult] learning the way they want, while still enabling new and different ways to manage learning outside the traditional ‘professional development when we can get to it’ structure.
Remix and Reuse
Parts and pieces can easily be copied from one place to another, encouraging and enabling content, performance tasks, and plans to be used in many ways and in all shapes in sizes.
Join the club
The Headrush team has started, lived in, and now services innovative learner-centered organizations. Join the community and gain access to Headrush huddles, networking connects, and available consulting.
Industrial Model anti-gravity
Dethrone the Course. Crown Agile as Queen.
Perhaps 16 week uniform credit chunks to account for learning may not best serve the learner, leverage new technology, or effectively inspire others to become educators? Headrush enables more agile chunks of learning since the course is not the center of our structure. You’re welcome :-)
Skill Sets for their Future, not our past rituals
Automation, artificial intelligence, and the global marketplace create different demands for learners well beyond content memorization. Skills such as project management, problem solving, and wayfinding are no longer a passing unit, they are the essentials to operate. Prioritize accordingly friends.
Human-Centered First
We’re all about using technology in smart ways to aid learning, foster creation, and broadcast expression, but we also believe relationships, agency, and purpose are rarely stimulated by clicking through video tutorials.
"Headrush is a game-changer for JAG students, who can use the platform to easily access projects, scholarships, job opportunities, employer connections and more. It’s also a valuable resource for JAG Specialists (teachers), providing a warehouse of ready-made content and a playlist of projects for them to utilize. That way, busy Specialists can spend less time developing content and more time engaging with their students."

"Our program at Avalon wouldn’t be possible without HEADRUSH-- HEADRUSH is responsive, intuitive, and helps students own their learning in real-time. The team at HEADRUSH has been wonderful to work with; Updates keep rolling out as direct responses to feedback from our students, and it has been so empowering for them to know that their voice matters."
Program Coordinator —Avalon
"A highlight for our students has been how HEADRUSH allows them to see where they’re at with their learning targets and graduation requirements, along with the functions where both educators and students can exchange comments, and then the implementation of different types of project proposals. These are the features that really help students understand what they are doing on a big picture level."

"Kudos to the HEADRUSH crew! Every step of the way we communicate back and forth with the HEADRUSH team to see what’s new and how we can best integrate HEADRUSH. Our advisors are all very complimentary about how smoothly the students have transitioned to HEADRUSH."

"What HEADRUSH has done for us is created a much more intuitive, user-friendly interface that can upload results and embed student work/research right within the platform... It keeps students on track, organized and simplified things in a sleek way."
