Parent Playground

Parent Playground aims to design for improved accessibility by unifying and incentivizing all virtual and in-person communication between families and schools. We accomplish this by introducing a range of activities, varying in effort level, that promote stronger accountability. Parent Playground measures engagement by integrating itself as a plug-in on existing channels, effectively tracking and translating engagement into redeemable incentives. This concept was co-designed and tested using different research methods with 50+ parents, teachers, and school administrators at PS:31, The William Lloyd Garrison School, Bronx, New York.
