HotChalk was an education technology company founded in September 2004.[1] HotChalk ran an online community application designed for grade school teachers, students, and parents. In August 2007, McGraw-Hill partnered with HotChalk to make McGraw-Hill training and certification tools available to HotChalk users.[2] NBC partnered with HotChalk as well to distribute NBC news archives to supplement educational materials.[2][3]

HotChalk was founded by Edward M. Fields; the company's last CEO was Rob Wrubel.[4]

The company drew scrutiny from the U.S. Department of Education in the mid-2010s regarding HotChalk's relationship with Concordia University of Portland, Oregon. A federal prosecutor alleged that the university's $160 million deal with HotChalk violated a law that prohibits incentives for recruitment and outsourcing of more than half an educational program to an unaccredited party. The investigation was settled out-of-court for $1 million with no admissions of wrongdoing.[5]

In November 2020, Noodle acquired Hot Chalk.[6]
