Lyricos Learning

In early 2022, Lyricos Learning, LLC launched&nbsp;<a href="https://steamondemand.org/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=lyricos-learnings-steam-on-demand-program-rolled-out-nationwide-in-2022-as-educators-and-students-enjoy-the-streaming-interactive-content-2721135" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">STEAM on Demand</a>®, a program that offers schools an innovative solution for ensuring STEM+Arts learning begins in UTK. The live-streaming platform provides educators and after school program staff with everything they need to offer TK–6 enrichment classes that are standards aligned and ideal for both in-school and after-school programs.&nbsp;Over the past year, schools have signed up with the service to treat themselves and their students to the streaming interactive, fun and educational content. STEAM on Demand has quickly established itself as an innovative and engaging resource after a couple of tough years for teachers and students.&nbsp;The service was rolled out to schools nationwide, serving over 50,000 students.&nbsp;“As we came out of COVID, we saw that there was a need for accelerated learning to prepare for science tests that are right around the corner,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/devina-bhojwani-3452053/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=lyricos-learnings-steam-on-demand-program-rolled-out-nationwide-in-2022-as-educators-and-students-enjoy-the-streaming-interactive-content-2721135" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Devina Bhojwani</a>, President of Lyricos Learning. “Schools and districts are allocating a lot of dollars towards improving or getting the kids inspired and motivated. Every interactive video on our platform leads instructors and students through concepts and hands-on projects. Students love the experience and teachers and staff appreciate the opportunity to utilize the new technology in the classroom. This eventually leads to a higher rate of STEM learning and plenty of opportunity to incorporate the arts and literacy throughout. In fact, the alignment with standards is not just NGSS, but other standards such as Common Core Arts and Language, as well as Texas TEKS.”&nbsp;STEAM on Demand is a STEM+Arts SAAS Plus platform that can be used by anyone, anywhere, to teach hands-on STEAM lessons. A complete library of 10–15 minute interactive videos is accessible from the technology platform. The platform is designed to empower teachers and staff to guide a 45-minute to an hour-long experience in the classroom, share their experiences with other teachers and guide an entire district in the same direction. The videos align with National Science and Common Core standards and support Cultural Proficiency and Universal Design for Learning (UDL).One of the first schools to pilot STEAM on Demand was Los Angeles Unified School District’s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cde.ca.gov/schooldirectory/details?cdscode=19647336018808&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=lyricos-learnings-steam-on-demand-program-rolled-out-nationwide-in-2022-as-educators-and-students-enjoy-the-streaming-interactive-content-2721135" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Purche Avenue Elementary</a>, a neighborhood school and a STEAM Magnet. Purche’s principal,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ginalbarnett/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=lyricos-learnings-steam-on-demand-program-rolled-out-nationwide-in-2022-as-educators-and-students-enjoy-the-streaming-interactive-content-2721135" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Dr. Gina Barnett</a>, said the program was exactly what the school needed.&nbsp;“We were looking for a supplemental STEAM program to enhance our current project-based curriculum,” said Dr. Barnett, “and our coordinators were blown away by what they saw. STEAM on Demand’s instruction enhances and expands on the general core curriculum. It sparks curiosity and ultimately sparks academic achievement.”&nbsp;After a successful pilot, Dr. Barnett has ordered the program for the entire school.&nbsp;“We were thrilled to see how excited everyone at Purche Avenue Elementary was,” Bhojwani said. “As more educators join the platform, we incorporate their feedback and continuously improve and expand the content.&nbsp; We develop all the content inhouse, which gives us the unique ability to make improvements and continuously add to the platform.”Additionally, a handful of high school students in Los Angeles had&nbsp;<a href="https://edcal.acsa.org/program-inspires-high-schoolers-to-consider-teaching?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=lyricos-learnings-steam-on-demand-program-rolled-out-nationwide-in-2022-as-educators-and-students-enjoy-the-streaming-interactive-content-2721135" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">the chance to explore teaching</a> thanks to STEAM on Demand. LAUSD Local District Central Superintendent Frances Baez, in partnership with Beyond the Bell and STEAM on Demand, launched an innovative, five-week STEAM training model that employed four high school students from Miguel Contreras High School to teach 50 students from Gratts Elementary School.Baez had the idea of using STEAM on Demand to empower high school students to teach elementary school students, teaching leadership to the older students and inspiring the younger students with diverse role models.Lyricos Learning is well positioned to serve the largest districts and offers supply kits in partnership with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.enasco.com/steam-on-demand?sscid=a1k6_id1uh&amp%3Bssaid=3273954&utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=lyricos-learnings-steam-on-demand-program-rolled-out-nationwide-in-2022-as-educators-and-students-enjoy-the-streaming-interactive-content-2721135" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">NASCO Education</a>.&nbsp;NASCO Education has been in the kitting business for over 80 years and has dedicated a part of their website exclusively to STEAM on Demand kits.“This is a huge partnership for us,” said&nbsp;Bhojwani. “NASCO has a very rich history of developing innovative solutions for the classroom, and having our kits sold on their website is an exciting opportunity.”&nbsp;STEAM on Demand is also offered throughout the Lyricos Learning-owned&nbsp;<a href="https://franchise.idealabkids.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=lyricos-learnings-steam-on-demand-program-rolled-out-nationwide-in-2022-as-educators-and-students-enjoy-the-streaming-interactive-content-2721135" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">IDEA Lab&nbsp;</a>®&nbsp;Kids after-school franchise system.&nbsp; IDEA Lab Kids has seen significantly increased demand for after-school programming during the 2022–2023 school year following a&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/lyricoslearning/idea-lab-kids-summer-camp-enrollment-increases-as-demand-for-in-person-enrichment-programs-climbs-2718902#featured">busy summer</a> of STEAM learning.

It delivers hands-on lessons in science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics.&nbsp;When&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/danny-santana-tulare-union-h-s-54b322111/">Danny Santana</a>, head of California’s Expanded Learning Opportunities Program for&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tcsdk8.org/">Tulare County&nbsp;</a>Office of Education, first received a phone call about STEAM on Demand, he wasn’t necessarily looking for a new platform. But he was open to possibilities.“A couple of years ago, I was in my office one afternoon and a phone call came through,” Santana said. “One of STEAM on Demand’s reps was calling and introduced themselves. In that conversation about what they do and what they have to offer, I became interested and agreed to another meeting. I wanted to see the product and a demonstration.”What began as a simple follow-up meeting quickly evolved into a county-wide transformation. After seeing a demonstration of the platform’s standards-aligned, project-based video lessons for TK-8 students, Santana knew he had found something different.“I became very intrigued and impressed,” he said. “I loved what they had to offer and how user-friendly it was. The videos, the insights, everything.”For Santana, the appeal wasn’t just the content itself — it was how accessible it was for his team. Tulare County’s expanded learning programs rely heavily on young college students and facilitators, many of whom do not have formal teaching backgrounds.“The hands-on activities, the enrichment activities — the fun stuff that still follows the standards we provide,” Santana said. “We can do it in a much more hands-on learning environment, and the lessons are very staff-friendly. Most of my staff that works with the kids are young college students, and so having the foundation has been great. The staff is really just the facilitator of the lessons.”Santana oversees programs that span 12 school districts and 30 school sites, serving diverse communities with varying levels of funding. He was determined to ensure that every student could benefit from the same opportunities.According to Santana, the&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/lyricoslearning/lyricos-learnings-steam-on-demand-is-a-stem-plus-arts-platform-that-districts-and-after-school-programs-find-easy-to-roll-out-2722339">STEAM on Demand</a> team met that challenge head-on. “STEAM on Demand worked with me in terms of being able to find a good price that enabled all the districts to have access,” he said. “It was a process, but through those conversations, I got a sense that they were really there for our students, regardless of funding.”What started as interest at a single site quickly grew into a full-scale rollout. Today, the platform supports more than 150 staff members across Tulare County’s expanded learning programs.The onboarding process included in-person training and collaborative sessions.“We had a couple of hiccups with training, but I was able to communicate that with the STEAM on Demand team, and they were very supportive,” Santana said. “They pivoted and listened to some of our suggestions, and we’ve been able to hit a home run because of that support. They are very supportive and solutions-oriented.”For Carolyn Taylor, STEAM Project Specialist and part of the STEAM on Demand team, the Tulare County relationship reflects what the platform is all about:&nbsp;collaboration.“The relationship we have with Danny has been amazing,” Taylor said. “He’s very open and very receptive to all the input we give him and all the support we give each other. He’s a great leader and I believe that makes a big difference.”The&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/lyricoslearning/idea-lab-kids-rolls-out-updated-steam-on-demand-platform-to-better-support-large-school-districts-and-diverse-learners-2727526#franchisor-stories">results inside classrooms and afterschool programs</a> speak volumes. “Our students love it,” Santana said. “We use the platform at least two times a week, but if sites and programs want to do it more, they are more than welcome to. It’s been really great in terms of student engagement.”Looking ahead, Tulare County is exploring ways to extend that engagement beyond the classroom.“We are currently working on some opportunities to bridge our families and set some things up to bring our parents in and have an evening where they can do a STEAM on Demand exercise and activity,” Santana said. “There are a lot of possibilities for the future, but it’s been great so far.”Taylor echoes that excitement for what’s next. “We are excited for the ongoing relationship and the ongoing hopes for growth, not just within the county but also within the school districts they serve and support,” she said. “Being able to have those relationships with the superintendents, as well as the teams there at the site, is great. It’s all about continuing to grow as a team and as a company as well.”ABOUT STEAM ON DEMAND:STEAM on Demand® is a technology platform that offers science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) interactive lessons “on demand” that are designed to be used in a collaborative classroom setting or online.
