"Schools collect an abundance of data -- assessments, student information, attendance, etc. But most of that that information isn't really used to improve teaching and learning," said Neil Sterling, CEO of SRGT. "IMPROVE is a 'smart' assessment system. It makes data useful, empowering teachers and administrators with the tools they need to drive meaningful improvements."
“This year’s finalists are breaking ground with new business models and innovative products. We are pleased to recognize the best in educational technology with these 157 products,” said Karen Billings, vice president of the SIIA Education Technology Industry Network. “I look forward to honoring them all in May at the Education Industry Summit.” Details about each finalist are listed at siia.net/codies/2015/finalists.asp.
