• Classwork: When students submit their work through the curriculum website (detailed in the “Flexible, blended program” section), all submissions are stored in the Classwork app. Besides storing all student work, Classwork is also a place where teachers can provide a grade and targeted feedback for students for various activities. Students receive these grades and/or feedback instantaneously, facilitating an effective teacher-student feedback loop.
• Reporting: Teachers gain insight into the progress and growth of each of their students through students’ performance on unit assessments. After students take the assessments online, teachers then get access to several elegant data visualizations and features in Reporting, such as:
  • Automatic assignment of students to differentiated content based on their responses to the mid-unit Critical Juncture assessment.
  • At-a-glance graphs that show class performance on the Pre-unit, Critical Juncture, and End-of-Unit assessments.
  • At-a-glance view of individual student performance on each of the assessments, including correct/incorrect responses and how the student’s selections compare to the rest of the class.
  • Item-level analysis, showing the spread of student responses to each of the multiple choice options for every question on the assessment.
• Classroom management tools: Teachers are able to direct student screens to specific lessons in the curriculum through the Start Class feature. Furthermore, teachers can regain students’ attention through the Eyes Up feature when students are engaging with lesson content digitally. Each of these tools is meant as a supplemental aid to help teachers in managing a classroom with students on devices.

Downloadable PDF

Finally, all unit Teacher’s Guides are also available as PDFs. These PDFs can be generated automatically through the curriculum website by pressing the “Generate Printable Teacher’s Guide” button. After pressing the button, the teacher has the option of either generating a PDF of the entire Teacher’s Guide, with all unit-level resources and overview documentation, or generating only the Lesson Guides, with the lesson and activity-level supports described in the subsections beneath “Teacher’s Guide” in the menu to the left here. A benefit of generating a PDF of the Teacher’s Guide is that it makes searching through the unit easy. Depending on the PDF viewer and device, a teacher could search the PDF for a few key terms or words and easily see where in the unit the word or term appears.
