Introducing Matrix...
Today school districts have a need for analyzing the assessment data they are collecting. This need stems from many reasons: meeting expectations on state assessments, assessing teacher performance, monitoring special student group scores, and making sure the district as a whole is sending students in the right direction as they grow in their education.
Furthermore, every assessment is a record on the progress for the district; it speaks to whether new strategies are improving each student's learning experience or if a new approach needs to be taken. This information is vital for making the right kinds of decisions to improve the overall education not for one student but for the entire district. This is the information you need to make the right decisions for your district.
Matrix puts this information at your fingertips using data your district is most likely already collecting. It makes the trends and progress your students are experiencing as they go through your curriculum clear and understandable. With Matrix, you easily get an overall picture of your district and how it is doing, as well as the ability to drill down to various levels of detail with simple clicks. You can find information specific to different cohorts e.g. grade levels, subject areas, ethnicities, gender, school years etc. or any combination of these.
Think about all the different ways to look at a district's performance; you can view it on how well students score, how effective teachers are in teaching students subject standards, or even how a course is in general. Matrix can do this; it puts the data at your fingertips in a clear and intuitive way that makes understanding the data simple.
