LEHI, Utah, Aug. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Independent research from Stanford University’s SCALE (Stanford Center for Assessment, Learning, and Equity) Initiative has found that K-12 teachers adopt SchoolAI, a comprehensive classroom AI platform, at significant rates, underscoring AI’s power to enhance teacher success and student engagement.
A recent SCALE study analyzed more than 9,000 teachers brand new to the platform over a 90-day period and found strong signals of value:
- Over 50% used SchoolAI for 5+ days in their first 90 days
- 42% became Regular or Power Users (8+ days of active use)
- Teachers consistently engaged across all tool categories: student learning spaces, productivity tools, and AI assistants
- Power Users spent more than 50% of their initial time using AI teacher assistants
These findings mark one of the most thorough third-party examinations of how educators are engaging with AI-powered platforms in practice rather than in theory.
“This research confirms what we see every day. Teachers are ready to use AI because it helps deliver positive student outcomes,” said Nate Sanders, Chief Experience Officer at SchoolAI. “Because SchoolAI can help tailor learning and keep students engaged, educators want to lean in with it. Our job is to make AI a safe, reliable, and empowering partner in the classroom, so that every student benefits and every teacher feels confident.”
The SCALE Initiative’s findings also highlight the breadth of teacher adoption. SchoolAI users didn’t just stick to one part of the platform but actively explored the full range of its features: student learning spaces, productivity tools, and classroom-ready AI assistants. This shows the potential for AI to be integrated in multiple aspects of teaching and learning.
SchoolAI has built its platform around two core pillars: student success and teacher support. Features like quick “bell ringer” check-ins, “exit tickets,” and AI-powered writing and research assistants are designed to give educators real-time insights and personalized support for students. Trusted in over 1 million classrooms across the U.S. and 80+ countries, SchoolAI has used findings from the SCALE study to build SchoolAI 2.0, a sweeping update to its platform that includes simplified features, new interactive tools that promote immersive learning, and an enhanced teacher toolkit.
