Navigator Labs deploys MAP-powered personalized learning for 9th grade English Language Learners mastering Algebra 1.
The Challenge
Lammersville Unified School District in California faced a critical challenge: 9th grade English Language Learners needed to master Algebra 1 concepts while simultaneously building English proficiency. Standard math instruction delivered problems at a uniform language complexity, meaning ELL students struggled not with the mathematics but with understanding what was being asked. Teachers had no way to adjust language difficulty for individual students while maintaining grade-level mathematical rigor. The result was low engagement, slow progress, and widening achievement gaps between ELL students and their peers.
The Solution
Navigator Labs, a MyGooru licensee, deployed MAP technology to personalize the learning experience for each student. MAP’s Active Sensing component continuously assesses each student’s mathematical understanding and English proficiency simultaneously. The system automatically adjusts the language complexity of math problems and explanations to match each student’s English level while maintaining grade-level mathematical rigor. Calibrated Beliefs model each student across knowledge (algebraic concepts mastered), abilities (computation fluency), and mindsets (confidence with word problems). Adaptive Pathways generate personalized sequences that coordinate language scaffolding with mathematical progression — so a student who understands quadratic concepts but struggles with English word problems gets simpler language around harder math, not easier math.
The Results
2.8x
Math learning growth compared to national norm (NWEA MAP), validated by the Christensen Institute’s independent research at Leadership Public Schools in Oakland.
35
Algebraic competencies mastered per semester by ELL students, compared to an average of 12 under standard instruction.
15%
Of advanced students progressed into Algebra 2 concepts ahead of schedule.
20%
Higher classroom engagement reported by teachers.
The results held across subsequent years, with sustained learning acceleration validating the approach. This confirms Bloom’s 2-Sigma hypothesis: personalized instruction can close achievement gaps that were previously considered structural.

Personalized Learning for 75,000+ Students Across 3 Continents
MAP technology adapts to local languages, curricula, and infrastructure — from high-bandwidth classrooms in the Middle East to offline tablets in rural Zambia.
GLOBAL EDUCATION (MIDDLE EAST)
Global Education utilizes a white-labeled version called Global Navigator to deliver personalized K-12 education across Lebanon, UAE, and Saudi Arabia. The platform adapts to local educational requirements while maintaining consistent learning standards. Teachers leverage multilingual capabilities and cultural adaptations, with real-time analytics guiding their interventions. MAP’s Calibrated Beliefs model each student across the five facets while respecting the specific curricular standards and pedagogical norms of each country’s education system.
GYAN PRAKASH FOUNDATION (INDIA)
Operating across Maharashtra and Goa, MAP transforms public education for over 75,000 students and 3,600 teachers. The platform delivers competency-based learning in regional languages (Marathi) for Math and Science in grades 1–10. Teachers reported 89% improvement in their ability to understand and support individual student progress, with 82% noting significantly better insights into student learning patterns. GPF demonstrates that MAP’s personalization works at massive scale in resource-constrained public school environments.
ZAMBIA OUT-OF-SCHOOL CHILDREN (ZOCS)
MAP was implemented using an innovative hybrid online-offline model for children whose parents’ migrant work patterns prevented consistent school attendance. Students receive shared tablets and visit internet centers where personalized learning lessons sync with the cloud. The platform provides meaningful personalization without requiring constant connectivity — MAP’s Adaptive Pathways pre-compute sequences that work offline, then recalibrate beliefs when connectivity is restored. This demonstrates MAP’s ability to deliver assured outcomes even in the most challenging infrastructure environments.
UBONGO (AFRICA)
Ubongo, one of Africa’s leading edutainment organizations, uses MAP’s GenAI tools for African content development. MAP helps Ubongo create and curate culturally relevant learning content at scale, then personalizes how that content is delivered to individual learners. The partnership demonstrates MAP’s ability to power content creation and personalization simultaneously — solving both the supply and navigation sides of the learning challenge.

College Readiness for Incoming Freshmen at CSU Long Beach
Prof. Gerry Hanley and CSU Long Beach deploy MAP to personalize the transition from high school to university-level coursework.
Skills Training
Accelerating Workforce Readiness Across Manufacturing, QSR, and Trades
MAP personalizes apprentice training so every worker reaches competency through the most efficient path for their individual starting point.
Lernern
Lernern licenses MAP to train apprentices for manufacturing, quick-service restaurants, and trades. Traditional apprenticeship programs deliver identical instruction regardless of a trainee’s prior experience — a former retail worker and a career changer from accounting receive the same 12-week program. MAP’s Active Sensing identifies each trainee’s existing competencies on day one, builds Calibrated Beliefs about their knowledge gaps and learning pace, and generates Adaptive Pathways that skip what they already know and focus on what they need. The result: faster time-to-competency, reduced training costs, and apprentices who are production-ready sooner.
Barbados National Deployment
The Government of Barbados is deploying MAP as the foundation for a national lifelong learning initiative supporting the country’s industrial economy transformation. As Barbados shifts toward high-value industries, its workforce needs personalized reskilling pathways that account for each citizen’s existing skills, career goals, and the specific competencies demanded by emerging industries. MAP powers the national platform, generating individualized pathways for citizens at every career stage — from young adults entering the workforce to experienced professionals transitioning between industries.
Professional Learning
85% Certification Completion for Peer Mental Health Workers in Tennessee
Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services deploys MAP to train and certify peer support specialists statewide.
The Challenge
Tennessee’s peer mental health worker certification program required individuals with lived experience of mental health challenges to master clinical concepts, ethical frameworks, and practical intervention skills. Traditional training delivered uniform content regardless of each worker’s background — a participant with a psychology degree and one with no formal education beyond high school received identical instruction. Completion rates were inconsistent, and the state needed a scalable model it could license to other states.
The Solution
MAP’s Active Sensing engages each participant through structured conversations that surface their existing knowledge, lived experiences, and comfort with clinical terminology. Calibrated Beliefs model each worker across professional knowledge (DSM frameworks, intervention protocols), mindsets (confidence in clinical settings), interests (population specializations), abilities (active listening, crisis de-escalation), and community (peer support networks). Adaptive Pathways generate certification journeys that leverage each worker’s lived experience as a foundation while filling specific knowledge gaps — so a participant who deeply understands substance use recovery but lacks crisis intervention training gets an accelerated path through familiar content and intensive practice on unfamiliar skills.
The Results
85% certification completion rate through adaptive pathways — significantly above industry benchmarks for professional certification programs. The platform is now being licensed to other states, demonstrating both the effectiveness of the approach and its replicability. Tennessee’s success proves MAP works not just for academic learning but for professional development where the stakes include human lives.
