🗣️ "Growth Mindset is one of the major reasons why I’ve remained at Prodigy Education. Throughout my career I’ve always been interested in self-growth. I didn’t always get that at other companies, but at Prodigy it’s been a very different experience." Meet Brian McAleese, Prodigy's Director of Game Engineering! 🔧 🕹️ Brian has been with Prodigy for six years. We spoke to him about his career journey, and what makes Prodigy different - for the right reasons - from other game-related companies he's worked at. 🧡 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gghVMnsZ

It's never been more important - or more complicated - for schools to ensure their classroom hashtag#EdTech is safe and secure. 🔒 At Prodigy, exceeding best practices in cybersecurity and safeguarding user data is always top-of-mind. It's one of the reasons we recently received the Common Sense Privacy Seal for "going above and beyond." Chief Technology Officer Ben Johnson leads Prodigy's work on cybersecurity, and spoke to eSchool News about the "green flags" districts and schools should look for when assessing classroom tools. 👇 https://lnkd.in/gpeqzYiU
