Quoria Foundation

Quoria Foundation has created a multilingual math practice software tool called Math4ALL. It's currently accessible in 24 languages. It will eventually be accessible in 95 languages — the languages spoken by 99+% of English learners (ELs) in U.S. schools. This breakthrough product aims to reduce the linguistic barrier to ELs' advancement in math by mainstreaming them alongside their English-speaking peers from their first day of school. Math4ALL is a new genre of educational content we call "massively multilingual"- a genre needed to help level the academic playing field for ELs while they learn English. Math4ALL's languages will include Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Haitian Creole, Korean, Tagalog, Arabic, Swahili, Russian, Hmong, Hindi, Lao, Tamil, Ukrainian, Gujarati, Persian/Farsi, Albanian, Serbo-Croatian, Navajo, and 75 other languages and dialects. The value of this research-based program is two-fold: 1) Its math practice module helps them stay on pace in math with their English-speaking peers. 2) Its assessment module (yet to be created) will provide educators needed visibility on what each EL knows and doesn't know - a need supported by research Math4ALL's content is at the core of STEM (the national initiative to improve education in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) and is aligned with the Common Core Standards (the national standards for math education).
