WAMedu: HOW DO WE DISRUPT? WAMedu provides each learning institution with an intuitive private social network that engages students with its look and feel, bridging the disconnection between traditional email based communications employed by
teachers and the social media tools students use everyday.
Unlike current social media, WAMedu does NOT blur the line between social and school life, safeguarding the!professional integrity of teachers and allowing the institution to control the content shown.
