Why Headrush for building relationships

Rebuilding student identity and agency starts with relationships. Headrush supports interest-driven, project-based, and work-connected learning with the structure teams need.

How Headrush helps schools put student relationships first

Balance flexibility and consistency in learner/advisor relationships

We know learners will go through life changes and transitions, but so will staff. A student might not stay with the same advisor throughout their whole learning career. Headrush helps schools maintain continuity in advisor and student relationships with records of student work, feedback loops, and social-emotional growth tracking. New advisors get more support so the transition can be smoother for students.

Prioritize student engagement and meet reporting expectations

You can see your students making progress through learner-driven projects, but accreditors, parents, colleges, and employers need to see it too. Headrush automatically generates conventional transcripts, as well as custom competency-based reports. Learners shine, and you save hours of manual data entry.

There's more to learning than just academics

Today’s students are learning beyond classrooms and textbooks. Headrush is an LMS designed with that vision in mind. Headrush records learners’ progress across their many learning sites, whether in school, at an internship, or through community service. It can also track competencies, like self-advocacy, resilience, collaboration, and leadership, that learners gain along the way.

Relationship-first learning models need visibility across the full learner journey, not just course completion.

Learning is about the journey, not just the destination.

You and your students are not bound by semesters and letter grades, so why is your learning management system? Headrush shares real-time feedback, awards fractional credit, and maps the learner’s entire journey, not just the end result.

Infinite learning paths. One easy tool.

Your creative solution to tracking messy, flexible learning is becoming its own problem. Headrush works with your learning model so you do not have to juggle multiple workarounds and tools. Co-design learning tasks, map competencies, and provide feedback all in one place.

One size doesn't fit all.

When learners lead the way with their unique interests, abilities, and potentials, working with conventional systems of accountability becomes challenging, if not impossible. Headrush works with you and your students, not against them, as they follow individual learning paths. Whether students fulfill their competency requirements in the classroom or at a worksite, in a quarter or in a year, Headrush helps you assess their progress and report on their success. You can even invite community members to comment on a student’s growth.
