Frequent and Visual Feedback
The periodic nature of these assessments allows for regular insights into a student’s holistic development, particularly regarding their learning performance. Whether conducted monthly or at the end of each semester, these assessments help both parents and teachers track ongoing progress and identify areas where students may need additional support. This consistent reporting replaces traditional, infrequent updates, allowing parents to stay informed throughout the preschool year.
To make the data more accessible, the KidsOnline app visualizes student analytic data into spider charts and column charts, providing a clear representation of the child’s holistic development and learning performance. These visuals make it easier for parents, especially those unfamiliar with academic jargon, to understand their child’s strengths and areas for improvement. By comparing current results with previous assessments, parents and teachers can easily identify progress trends, helping them collaboratively guide the student’s development.
Real-Time Notifications for Timely Engagement
An important feature of KidsOnline’s Student Assessment is its real-time notification system. When a new assessment is submitted, parents receive instant alerts, allowing them to promptly access their child’s evaluation. This timely communication ensures that parents are always aware of their child’s progress, enabling them to engage more actively in their learning. The ability to instantly view and compare new data with past assessments enhances this involvement, making it a seamless process.
Customized and Transparent Reporting
The assessments are customizable, allowing schools and teachers to adapt the criteria and assessment scales based on specific class or grade-level requirements. This tailored approach ensures that student assessments reflect the unique learning goals for a specific period, providing more relevant feedback for both teachers and parents. By aligning their expectations and understanding, preschools, teachers, and parents can work together more effectively to support a child’s holistic development.
We asked for feedback from teacher Jack Soloman on the KidsOnline Student Assessment function, and here is his observation: “The function is easy to use on the KidsOnline app or website. All of these different assessments are customizable by the preschool. This ensures that each assessment is tailored towards the student, class, or grade. Furthermore, all of these reports can create student analytics that can be seen by the parents once the report has been submitted.”
KidsOnline’s Student Assessment feature strengthens the link between schools, teachers, and parents by offering regular, visualized feedback and real-time communication. Through easy-to-understand reports and consistent updates, this feature ensures that parents and teachers are well-informed and able to work together, enhancing the overall educational experience for students.
