Research focused

Fledge is committed to becoming an evidence-based platform.

We believe that a data-driven approach is the key to making a difference in the lives of children. In pursuit of that goal, we have partnered with the University of Calgary to conduct research and evaluate our platform’s effectiveness. We invite parents and teachers of fledglings to participate in the research project as of January 2024. Specifically, we will be using qualitative and quantitative data to look at how the app impacts children on their:

  • Emotional Regulation

  • Stress & Anxiety

  • Focus & Attention

  • Social Interaction
