An innovative kindergarten platform for teachers, headmasters, parents, and local governments
Mr. Rasmus Gross, CEO and Co-founder
with ELIIS
ELIIS Kindergarten Platform – paperless environment for all kindergartens. We help preschools and kindergartens greatly enhance operations, administration, child development, curriculum planning and communication. By saving time from paperwork and bureaucracy teachers are now able to do what they should do – teaching and taking care of children.
eKool is an easily accessible web-based school management tool bringing together pupils and their families, schools and supervisory bodies. eKool supports better learning for the pupil, parents are better aware of their children’s progress and the authorities have a good overview of what goes on in schools under their management.
Opiq is Star Cloud’s digital learning environment used in the majority of Estonian basic and upper secondary schools, which contains textbooks, learning kits, study journal, self-assessment system and other important information to be used by teachers, students and parents. The directory of materials is constantly updated. This is a web app, which the customer sells as a model software service. Besides a PC and tablet, the application can also be used on smartphones and needs no separate app.
