Edsby online test

Online testing

Differentiate assessments

Assign different assessments to subsets of students as desired.

Realtime parent visibility into student achievement

Parents receive their own accounts, tied to their children’s, as a window into their achievement. They see learning evidence of younger children curated by their teacher, incl. photos, videos, lesson plans or videos of class interactions. Information is real time, not a periodic email abstract.

Check for conflicts

It’s a little thing teachers love! When creating a new assessment, Edsby can recommend the best due date and time after searching the calendars of students in the class for events, other assessments, planned absences or other potential conflicts.
