Naiku receives eSchool Media Readers’ Choice Award

MINNEAPOLIS, July 24, 2012 – Naiku announced today that, for the 2nd straight year, they received a Readers’ Choice Award from eSchool Media. The Honorable Mention award was given for the Naiku SaaS assessment platform, the only such product to receive a Readers’ Choice Award from eSchool Media this year.

They also like that Naiku works seamlessly with their 1:1 or BYOD implementations as their students can use any web enabled device, allowing them to use Naiku anywhere, anytime, to identify student knowledge to inform instruction.”
