Standards-Based Grading

Easily Track and Communicate Student Progress Toward Learning Standards

Many schools struggle with the inconsistency of traditional grading methods, making it challenging to accurately assess and communicate students’ proficiency of learning standards and course objectives.

Schools need a solution that automates standards-based grading processes, streamlining the assessment, tracking, and reporting of student progress. This ensures consistency, transparency, and efficiency in grading practices, enabling educators to provide more accurate feedback and tailor instruction to meet individual student needs, ultimately leading to improved student success and school performance.

“We have a very unique competency-based system for assessment – a mash-up of competency, standards, mastery, and traditional. It was very difficult to find a tool and gradebook to support how we do things, and Otus filled every need we had.”
