The Scarborough Bluffs Rotary Club recently had the privilege of hosting Diane Montgomery, a passionate advocate for inclusive education and the visionary behind Study Smart Inclusive Solutions Inc. Her presentation left a lasting impression, and the club is deeply grateful for the insights she shared on transforming how students learn.
Diane’s work is rooted in her commitment to equity and personalized learning. Drawing from her experience as an educational therapist and consultant, she developed the Study Smart app, a groundbreaking tool designed to help students understand how they learn best and what strategies will help them succeed.
What is the Study Smart App?
The Study Smart app is more than just an educational tool it’s a personalized learning companion. It offers:
- Gamified Holistic Assessments: Students engage in interactive assessments that reveal their learning styles and cognitive strengths.
- Customized Learning Plans: Based on assessment results, the app generates tailored strategies to help students study smarter, not harder.
- Actionable Learning Strategies: Students receive practical tips they can apply immediately to improve focus, retention, and academic performance.
- Equitable Access: The app is designed to support learners of all abilities, including those facing systemic barriers to education 1.
Educators and parents can access free trial versions, making it easier to explore its benefits in real-world settings.
Making a Difference
Diane’s visit to the Scarborough Bluffs Rotary Club highlighted how technology, when thoughtfully designed, can bridge gaps in education. Her message was clear: when students understand how they learn, they become empowered, motivated, and more successful.
The Rotary Club celebrates Diane’s dedication and the impact of Study Smart in fostering inclusive, effective learning environments. Her work aligns beautifully with Rotary’s mission of service and community upliftment.
