Educators understand and use data to drive their instruction and support students in achieving their learning goals. Educators:

7a: Provide alternative ways for students to demonstrate competency and reflect on their learning using technology.

7b: Use technology to design and implement a variety of formative and summative assessments that accommodate learner needs, provide timely feedback to students and inform instruction.

7c: Use assessment data to guide progress and communicate with students, parents and education stakeholders to build student self-direction.
