Projects don’t get assessed this way.
Why we created
Today’s students have the tools to create and share the things they learn to gain feedback
and insights from peers and educators
Great student work shouldn’t end up here…
..and it cannot be solely assessed here.
Assessing and communicating competences built with rigor and
accountability is hard.
What is ?
is a learning platform that enables teachers to create and share dynamic projects, leave meaningful feedback on student work, and allows learners to capture and track their academic growth and achievement over time in digital learning portfolios.
We help educators create, share, and assess dynamic project based assignments.
We give educators tools to provide meaningful feedback.
Rubric
VideoGrades Badges Text Audio Rubrics
We give the students a platform to complete projects, get feedback from educators + peers, and then create
portfolios of their best work so they can track growth over time
Built specifically for educators, students, admins, and parents

First Machine Trial
Simple Machine Project
Great work on this project! I really like the way that you explained the motor placement and the way you wrote the script for the motion path on the car.
Notes about Feedback
Feedback is controlled by the educator assigning the project
Feedback from the teacher includes audio, video, badge, grade, text, or rubric - other teachers and peers do not have the ability to add or change the grade, rubric, or badge given
Feedback is sent to the students and will be available as part of the progress report
