While technology has become part of almost any classroom, a majority of teachers still prefer pen and paper as their go-to teaching tool. Studies show that handwriting is key to comprehension, knowledge retention, and creativity. Jotit brings "digital-paper" to the classroom, allowing students and teachers to enjoy the benefits of both digital and traditional methods.
Built with simplicity and functionality at its core, Jotit is already making a significant impact in schools across the United States. By reducing administrative burdens and enabling distraction-free learning, the platform is reshaping classroom dynamics. Features like advanced handwriting recognition, real-time collaboration tools, and customizable workflows are delivering measurable results among K-12 students.
David Bleicher, Jotit's CEO and Co-Founder, highlighted the significance of the partnership and the company's mission: "At Jotit, we aim to empower educators and students by fostering a distraction-free learning environment where handwriting takes center stage. The tremendous support from Owl Ventures and our esteemed investors is a powerful endorsement of our vision. Together, we'll expand our reach and empower more educators to leverage technology to improve learning and drive better results."
"Jotit's approach to technology in the classroom is different; We introduce it only where it reinforces proven educational value: Order, executive-function and active learning"
"We've been envisioning and searching for a product like Jotit that brings back the joy of writing into the classroom. Jotit's innovative and seamless learning platform is clearly resonating with teachers and students, and the company is poised to establish itself as one of the most trusted brands within K-12 classrooms," said Jenny Wang, Partner at Owl Ventures. "We are excited to partner with the Jotit team and help scale this transformative platform to K-12 schools across the US and around the globe."
