History[edit]

In more recent years (2018-2024), IXL Learning has acquired various other companies. First was ABCya, a major educational gaming site, and then, in the following year of 2019, Education.com. Vocabulary.com followed in the next year. 2021 saw the acquisition of two new subsidiaries: Rosetta Stone and Wyzant. Curiosity Media and Emmerison followed in 2022 and Teachers Pay Teachers came in 2023. Most recently, IXL purchased Dictionary.com and Thesaurus.com.[2] 2019, IXL came out with an Android phone App. An IPad app released back in 2014.[3]
