BrainPop is used in more than 25% of U.S. schools and also offers subscriptions for families and homeschoolers. It is also used in schools in several other countries, where it offers videos in local languages that are designed for students in those countries. The site is available by subscription but has some free content, including a movie of the day, several movies from each topic area, educators' materials, and games. Its content can also be accessed using its smartphone and tablet applications. Most of the videos feature the characters Tim and Moby. The videos and other materials are aligned to state education standards and designed to engage students and assist teachers and home schoolers. In addition to BrainPop.com for older children, the company offers BrainPop Jr. for younger children (grades K-3); BrainPop Español; BrainPop Français; BrainPop ELL for non-native speakers learning English; BrainPop Educators, a free site for teachers and parents to post materials like lesson plans, and interact with BrainPop and each other; GameUp, a library of educational games; and My BrainPop, a tool for students and teachers to record learning accomplishments.
