Teachers can construct lessons in their teacher Instruction Center in the ALL In Cloud to:
• Engage their students in class using the student response technology (ALL In Response (AIR)) with affordable and green battery less student devices
• Scan assessment results via the ALL In Learning personal scanning technology using green technology enhanced and affordable document cameras or teacher iPads
• Deploy to student devices for individualized student assessment and self-evaluation

Since all the assessment results are collected in the cloud, data teams can assess the results and compare to U.S and International averages, immediately pinpointing areas where standards need additional instruction.
Rapid common formative assessment can be utilized using this unique combination of internationally vetted questions, the power of the cloud and affordable green technology designed to save time, save paper and deliver extraordinary data to impact instruction.
