With the school day packed with prescriptive curriculum and testing, we saw the school library as a doorway to something different. A place where students could engage with ideas that excite them. That was the birth of LIRA Learning.
But we quickly hit a wall. The lessons we designed by hand were engaging and meaningful, but difficult to create at scale. So, we started building. That's when LIRA evolved from a library curriculum into a full-service, tech-enabled instructional design system.
Today, LIRA partners with educational organizations, content providers, and curriculum teams to integrate our Instructional Design System into their workflows and products.
