VOCABULARY & SPELLING FEATURES
Wordela’s AutoLearnTM uses a proprietary gamified enhancement of spaced repetition. Research shows that this approach increases vocabulary acquisition and retention by up to 70%. Students gradually see words less as they learn them, and focus more on problem areas. AutoLearnTM reinforces the learning process and prevents forgetting.
Wordela includes hundreds of standards-aligned word lists for all grade levels. These are compiled by curriculum experts and designed to boost vocabulary, spelling, and overall literacy levels.
In just a few clicks, a teacher can create and share a word list for students to study. Wordela automatically adds a wealth of learning information for any English word - or the teacher can enter custom definitions.
Wordela’s flash cards are a great way to supplement learning. Share any word list with a class (built-in or custom) and watch the students master their new vocabulary in no time. Wordela’s flash cards are a joy to use and include powerful features such as keyboard shortcuts, auto or manual advance, and personalization options.
Research shows that our brains are hardwired to learn words through context. Wordela uses this science to accelerate learning. Wordela is the only program to integrate multiple resources, including a “Linguistic Corpus” – a massive database of over 520 million words in context. This means students can get more contextual learning for a word in 2 minutes that previously would have taken months of reading.
Wordela includes a 146,902-word built-in dictionary, so any word you need to add to a list is right there at your fingertips. Simply enter any word list, and all of Wordela's features will work automatically.
In addition to its 146,902-word built-in dictionary and 520 million word linguistic corpus, Wordela also integrates with multiple reliable online resources such as Wikipedia. We call this Word DiscoverTM. Having Word DiscoverTM means that students will never be short on the best learning content while studying vocabulary and spelling.
Wordela can be used for spelling, vocabulary, or even both at the same time.

TEACHING & ADMIN FEATURES
Wordela gives teachers complete visibility and easy control. At a quick glance, you can see how the class is doing, how each student is doing, and who needs help.

See usage stats and be confident your school or district is making the most of Wordela.
