Snapwiz Debuts Free, Web-Based Formative Assessment Platform

Snapwiz today released Edulastic, a free, Web-based formative assessment platform designed to help teachers prepare and deliver Common Core curricula.

With Edulastic, teachers can create standards-aligned formative assessments with interactive, free-form questions defined by Smarter Balanced and PARCC. The platform also offers a repository of free, standards-aligned questions crafted by other teachers.

According to the company, Edulastic gives educators data on student proficiency at an aggregate and individual level, and can facilitate the adoption of benchmarked standardized assessments through a collaborative evaluation process that can be applied across districts and within broader learning communities.
