Assessment Solution for Board and Classroom Assessments

Screenshot of assessment application

The assessment application was designed for teachers to support the assessment for learning model.  This application is intended to ensure teachers can quickly enter their own or Board data and at the same time reflect on the student results.  Teachers can then group the students for instruction, identify specific strategies for students within these groups and continuously monitor their progress using an electronic data wall.  This solution supports ALL board assessments as well as supports teacher assessments which can then be displayed alongside the board assessments.
