● Why Generate Data?

● How Edify Can Help

● Perspectives:o Student

o Parent

o Teacher

● Q & ANote: None of the data presented

data. It has been generated

specifically for this presentation.

Who Am I?

● Grand Rapids Christian High School

o Science Teacher

o XC & Track Assistant Coach

● I have recently become very interested

in learning how technology can

enhance and personalize my students

learning.

Why Generate Data?

● Allows the STUDENT to specifically

identify what they don’t know.

● Allows the PARENT to help guide their

child’s learning.

● Allows the TEACHER to Personalize the

learning for each of their students.

How Edify Can Help

● All assessment items are tagged with

standards.o Assessment items can be used for pre-

tests, lesson (formative) assessments,

and summative post-assessments.

o Data is reported in real time.

o Teachers can filter reports by student,

class, assessment, standard, etc.

How Edify Can Help

● Resources are also tagged with standardso Resources for students are automatically

selected based on their performance. Called Recommended Resources

o Students, Parents and Teachers can all

see these recommended resources.

o These resources can be used for very

specific studying, reinforcement,

remediation, etc.

The Student’s

Perspective

The Student’s Perspective

● Data allows the Student to specifically

identify what they know and what they

don’t know.o Studying can be simplified by focusing on

the standards that have not been mastered.

o “Recommended Resources” provide specific

practice to help master a standard.

o No more guessing about what to study!

The Parent’s Perspective

Not actual student data

The Parent’s Perspective

● Data allows the Parent to help guide

their child without guessing what has

been taught.o Parent and student can have meaningful

discussions about the student’s

performance and how to improve.

o Parent can easily help to guide their

child by pointing out areas (standards) of

weakness.

The Teacher’s Perspective

Not actual student data

The Teacher’s Perspective

● Data allows the Teacher to Identifyo A class that already knows it (pre-test)

o A class that still doesn’t know it (before

or after a post-test)

o Students who already know it (pre-test)

o Students who still don’t know it (before

or after a post-test)

o Improvement/Progress

o Poor test questions (Item Analysis)
