Many schools are finding that Kid Pix no longer works on their computers or on their new Chromebooks. Thousands of educators have switched to Wixie as their Kid Pix alternative.
Wixie is an online authoring tool that lets students share what they know through their writing, their voice, and their art.
Unlike Kid Pix, Wixie is a cloud-based service. Wixie works in browsers on Windows, Macintosh, and Chromebooks. The Wixie app lets you log into your account on iPads and Android tablets.
Since students start by logging into their account, students can begin working on one device and continue working on their projects at home or at a different location after school.
Wixie gives students powerful tools to blending text with images, original art, and voice and video recording.
Using Wixie, students can create original work and collaborate with peers in almost any area of the curriculum.
Students can share their work with a URL, and download it as a PDF, video, images or ePub, .
Wixie is way more than just a student tool. Wixie's instructional tools help teachers plan, implement, and evaluate student work. Teachers can manage assignments, track student progress toward curriculum goals, and assess student work using customizable rubrics.
Wixie includes library of templates that range from formative assessments in language arts, math, science, and social studies, to graphic organizers like Venn diagrams, timelines, and flowcharts. Teachers can use, modify, and assign these templates to students in their classes.
