Colegio Miraflores
Using CYPHER for automation and collaboration
Enhancing student organization while promoting a collaborative learning environment
Colegio Miraflores was founded over 60 years ago. Currently, the school has five campuses, one in the state of Guanajuato in the city of Leon, one more in the state of Morelos in the city of Cuernavaca, and three more in the state of Mexico in the municipalities of Toluca, Huixquilucan, and Naucalpan. The Miraflores Mexico school is located in the municipality of Naucalpan, in the west of the metropolitan area in Mexico City.
This school has 1,200 enrolled students and offers elementary, middle school, and high school levels. The Colegio Miraflores is a private religious institution but with a cutting-edge pedagogical and technological background, which places it as one of the best educational institutions in the region.
“Ever since its implementation, CYPHER has allowed us to develop new methodologies, work by project, work by group and, work not only physically but also electronically.”

The challenge
- Integrating trilingual education and technology posed logistical challenges
- Ensuring diverse teaching methodologies while maintaining classroom engagement
The educational model of the Colegio Miraflores is characterized by offering a trilingual education in Spanish, English, and French, in addition to having all the technological advances in each of its classrooms.
The solution
The Colegio Miraflores has been using CYPHER for over five years. It began with a two-year pilot plan where teachers and students were prepared for the platform. Fortunately, three years ago the educational authorities made the decision to use CYPHER as the official platform of Colegio Miraflores.
Implementation
"Ever since its implementation, CYPHER has allowed us to develop new methodologies, work by project, work by group and, work not only physically but also electronically" said Dan Gerson Rodríguez Cazares, Teacher.
"Thanks to CYPHER, we can design content, communicate directly with our students, provide feedback for each of their activities, check the gradebook at any time and generate more dynamic activities within the classroom."
Features
"The calendar gives me the freedom to complete the work in my own time and prepare for exams in advance. Once you have submitted your assignments, your teachers grade them and you see your results right away. Lastly, if you are missing something, it allows you to communicate with your peers or students easily" said Duna, Student.
"Teachers use CYPHER to evaluate us. They use either multiple-choice questions or open questions. As students, we work on essays or projects on the same platform or they divide the class into teams so that we can collaborate. There is also a Forum where we can discuss different topics as a class and we can vote for the answer we like best. The calendar gives an overview of the upcoming tasks which is good for completing tasks in our own time."

Duna, a student at Colegio Miraflores said "I like CYPHER because it’s very practical, easy to use, and has many features. For example, if I have a question, I can just message my teacher and they will respond directly. We also get to see the progress of our work and the grades for each task. We get an overview of all of our lessons at all times."
“CYPHER has helped me to be more organized when it comes to assignments.”
