Breakout Objective
This session will take in-depth look at typical market requirements for an integrated solution (district and state), Race To The Top Assurances (federal), and federal research supporting a district’s acquisition and implementation of an integrated, end to end solution. These market requirements (district, state, and federal) validate market readiness for Radiant.

Core Requirement Areas
• Content/Curriculum Management• Gradebook/Learning Management (data-driven
instruction)• Online Learning• Assessment & Data Analytics• Online Professional Development Courses• Measurement of Teacher Effectiveness• Student Information• Parent/Community Learning Portal
Requirement Details
Content & Curriculum Management • Standards Based Curriculum (National, State, District);
flexible and adaptable• Permissions based on roles and groups• Interactive and Differentiated• Inclusive of Best Practice ModelsGradebook/Learning Management (data-driven
instruction)• Prescriptive/data driven• Provides personalized instruction per student preferences• Recommendations for curriculum, instruction, assessment,
and professional development that adapt to the needs to teachers and students• Fully integrated Gradebook for online and offline grade
reporting
Requirement Details
Online Learning • Online courses which support synchronous and asynchronous
learning• Ability for students to rate courses based on content quality, level ofengagement, and self assessed effectiveness• Course includes customizing features for the learner—e.g., modulesallow for selection of concepts and sequencing, multiple levels of
difficulty• Course includes diagnostic tests to determine learners’ readiness,strengths, and areas for improvement and has ability to vary starting
pointsbased on student readiness performance
Assessment & Data Analytics• Supports assessment questions which vary in style to promote higher
level thinking• Customizable assessment bank with effectiveness ratings based on
level of difficulty and distracter tracking• Provides administrators and teachers with multiple views of
longitudinal data• Standard and customizable reports for data trending and informed
instructional decisions

National Educational Technology Plan
Essential Question:“The essential question facing us as we transform the U.S.
education system is this: What should learning in the 21st century look like?”
Grand Challenge: “The ultimate grand challenge problem in education:
establishing an integrated, end-to-end real-time system for managing learning outcomes and costs across our entire education system at all levels.”
National Educational Technology Plan
Proposed Solutions:• 1.0: Design and validate an integrated system that provides real-time
access to learning experiences tuned to the levels of difficulty and assistance that optimizes learning for all learners, and that incorporates self-improving features that enable it to become increasingly effective through interaction with learners.
• 2.0: Design and validate an integrated system for designing and implementing valid, reliable, and cost-effective assessments of complex aspects of 21st century expertise and competencies across academic disciplines.
• 3.0: Design and validate an integrated approach for capturing, aggregating, mining, and sharing content, student learning, and financial data cost-effectively for multiple purposes across many learning platforms and data systems in near real time.
• 4.0: Identify and validate design principles for efficient and effective online learning systems and combined online and offline learning systems that produce content expertise and competencies equal to or better than those produced by the best conventional instruction in half the time at half the cost.
