How It Works

Address the Critical Skills Gap in Any Curriculum.

Preparing for the real world should look a lot more real world. (NOTE: actual thing, not the TV show). Mission.io revolutionizes learning by seamlessly integrating unforgettable experiences into any lesson, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and its practical application. With us, the guesswork is gone. You're not just crossing fingers that skills are being learned; you're embedding crucial competencies right into your curriculum — targeted, measurable, and unmistakably awesome.

Choose a Mission

Embedding missions? Piece. Of. Cake. Teach what you already had planned and let the students know, "A mission is coming. [pause for dramatic effect] Will you be ready?"

Connect Your Students

No obnoxious passwords or student logins to keep track of. Just sit your students with their teams and pull up the mission. We promise, after you push start you won't want to go back to "normal" again.

Launch the Mission

This is a student-led experience, so encourage students to speak up and move around. As the teacher, you provide gentle nudges and guide discourse without giving answers away (i.e. let them fail). 

Dive Into the Data

Each amazing moment when students put their heads together, speak up, and move around the room is facilitated and measured by our groundbreaking technology. It's gonna blow you away.

How it Works

Anatomy of a Mission

Every mission follows a clear path: students join, face a high-stakes scenario, investigate evidence, act on their ideas, and see the story unfold. 

Students lined up connecting to the lobby of a Mission using a simple four digit code while they sit patiently in their teams.

1. Join the Mission

Students gather into their teams, and log in with a simple code on their Chromebook or tablet.

2. Initiate Briefing

The class is dropped into a high-stakes, standards-aligned crisis scenario that sets the stage.

3. Investigate Evidence

Teams analyze charts, data, and first-hand accounts — sharing information to piece together the bigger picture.

Students engaged in a mission working in teams and collaborating to come up with the best solution.

4. Take Action

Students either choose the best course of action or design a solution, putting their ideas to the test.

5. See the Story Play Out

The mission responds to their choices — success, setbacks, or catastrophic failure depend on how well they worked together.

6. Review the Data

Both students and teachers get instant feedback: knowledge checks, collaboration scores, and skill insights.

Test-Drive Mission.io as a Faculty

Before you launch with students, run a mission with your faculty. It’s the perfect way to see the platform in action, spark quality team-building, and get everyone excited about what’s possible in the classroom.

Teachers work together during an engaging mission where they are putting their hands together in a united way as they successfully overcome a challenge.

It's Time to Take a Stand

Teachers have battled education's toughest monsters alone for too long. Mission.io is here to help you unlock the future of learning, equipping your classroom to win the fight and prepare students for tomorrow.

Do we dare overthrow 200 years of tradition? Yep. *Cue gasp*

Authentic Collaboration

Collaboration isn't just a buzzword for us; it's our middle name. While other platforms offer "group work," we serve up teamwork so real that you'll swear it's the educational equivalent of a handcrafted artisanal latte.

Inquiry and Problem Solving

Let's ditch the textbook hypotheticals. Our missions immerse students in rich scenarios demanding data analysis, strategic debates, and innovative solutions. They're not just solving puzzles; they're saving worlds and nailing their exams in the process.

Radical Engagement

Others talk about engagement like it's a spice sprinkled on a bland lesson plan. For us, it's the whole recipe. We're redefining the game: experiences so captivating that students rate us higher than recess. Don't believe us? Just wait and see.
