Eduphoria is excited to bring you another interactive response question type: Drag and Drop. This question type allows students to view possible answer choices and to drag them to the appropriate box within a text question. Drag and Drop is our sixth addition to our interactive response question types, which include multi-select, constructed response, hot text, inline choice, and text entry.

We are pleased to announce the new domain and dimension summary view in Appraisal Analysis to aid in identifying inflation in specific areas of the rubric. District leaders now have the option to filter to a specific domain or dimension to calibrate on the rubric. Additionally, soon district leaders will be able to view data by percentages as well as to export the data view to a spreadsheet.

Effective methodologies for monitoring student growth are Student Learning Objective (SLO) and student portfolio practices. Teachers may monitor and adjust intervention and enrichment strategies at each learning milestone. 

The Aware student portfolio enables teachers to document student learning and make growth determinations. When paired with a Strive student growth goal, the student portfolio is an essential discussion point for coaching and professional evaluation. 

Regardless of how your district is measuring student growth, you may now capture student growth ratings in the summative document.
