-VIDEOS: Engaging videos deliver the knowledge (no boring powerpoints!)
-SHORT INFO-CHUNKS: Ideal for busy schedules (and those with short attention spans!).
-CO-LEARNING: UpGo is two apps in one. Adults and students use their linked apps to learn together and discuss key topics for increased connection!
-ACCOUNTABILITY: Parents, teachers or facilitators can assign courses and track progress to ensure knowledge acquisition.
YOUTH EMPOWERMENT!
UpGo teaches youth to fish, rather than giving them a fish, as the saying goes. UpGo believes in todays youth...believes they can and will make good decisions when given the proper knowledge and training. UpGo helps them learn:
-How to handle new or tough situations.
-How to manage strong emotions.
-How to make thoughtful decisions.
-When, who and how to ask for help.
UpGos empowerment-through-education approach can have long-lasting benefits over other methods that spoon-feed or talk down to teens, or are cartoony, or that give scripted responses or a bullet list of dos and donts.
UpGo is not a parental control app or cell phone monitoring software. UpGos approach is education that empowers todays youth to be confident, safe and prepared.
EXTRA: ANTI-BULLYING PROGRAM BY UPGO available as a very low-cost, one-time (not subscription) in-app purchase.
UpGos Anti-Bullying Program is comprehensive curriculum for teens and pre-teens and includes these powerful anti-bullying tools:
-The APA Technique (Assess, Plan then Act). Gives students a tool to thoughtfully figure out what to do when they see bad behavior, instead of acting hastily in emotion.

-Bullying PEACE Plan(tm) gets the bullying to stop.
