Children's education will be hit hard during prolonged school closures - particularly the most vulnerable. Researchify is a simple curriculum search engine that only displays relevant and readable results, enabling kids to work on remote assignments easily.

Hi hunters ๐Ÿ‘‹ I'm a teacher and blogger based in the UK. With mass shutdowns and remote lessons looking very likely, I made Researchify to help teachers set assignments in the knowledge that children could easily find what they need to research. Research lessons are annoying enough in school (with every other result distracting kids from their research topic), let alone at home with no teacher during a school closure. Hopefully Researchify can make independent research a little bit easier!

Why not just use Google or any other established search engine? I searched for โ€œcatโ€ and none of the results in the first page actually contained information about cats. The first result: Play Karate Cats Game For Kids | Free Online Spelling Games Yeah, I donโ€™t think thatโ€™s gonna help with assignments.

@anna_0x Try searching for an actual curriculum topic ;-)

@anna_0x Also, did you try using google for 'cats'?! Hopefully that answers your question.
Anna Filou
@solomon_teach yes, Google's first result: "The cat is a small carnivorous mammal. It is the only domesticated species in the family Felidae and often referred to as the domestic cat to distinguish it from wild members of the family." Taken from Wikipedia. Honestly, I don't see what more Researchify offers ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ

@anna_0x Looks like we'll have to agree to disagree. All I can say is try using google with 30 x 6 years olds and let me know how it goes! ๐Ÿ˜€

Hi I think this is a fab tool and I plan to use it with my class of 30 6/7 year olds. Thank you for taking the time to create.

Do you use Researchify?
