The writing prompt generator is very impressive, and it's clear the AI has ‘read the book’. I teach grade 10 ELA. The prompt generator intrigues me because:
1) It makes it easy to create a quick assignment to
wrap up a teaching session;
2) it reminds students about how to connect ideas
with the signal (transition) words for the writing style I select.

The real-time feedback is so important to keep students engaged by knowing they are doing good things. It is indeed motivating. And the ability for me to monitor the whole class and comment on any individual work in real-time is amazing.
My colleagues and I tend work untethered so to have this kind of access wherever we are is a big time saver!

"Today we made newspapers with Pressto,
published and shared"

The art of teaching writing can be a complex concept for many teachers. Pressto allows teachers to motivate students and provide them with the confidence needed to become writers.
Students are able to see themselves as authors of their craft. They are able to align standard-based content to the writing process which results in stronger writers.

"Our students love it, the teacher loves it, and it’s inspired our writers. You couldn’t ask for anything more than that."
- Ms. Gundersen
Pressto is a really fun project that we can start online and finish offline - We can also share digitally across all channels. We are learning critical writing and media literacy, and we could not be having more fun!

"I recommend this program as a strong motivating supplement to support students with their writing across subject areas."
- Ms. Zutter
"Most important, students loved that they could have their own magazine, and everyone could share their stories. It makes writing much more fun and interesting."
- Ms. Porfirio
