Zula Exploration Mission Modules provide inquiry-based science, math and language arts activities, designed to promote the development of critical thinking skills. For assessment, teachers are encouraged to use authentic methods for assessing student learning that focus on concept understanding. Zula has also created more traditional types of assessments to aid teachers in understanding their children's knowledge of a subject and how that knowledge progresses over time. The assessment tools also help teachers to understand which concepts may need to have more focus with their students. By providing this information, teachers can help students by reinforcing and repeating explorations and experimentations to help them gain confidence and familiarity with specific topics and underlying concepts.
