Using Learning Standards

Aspen gives your school the ability to use learning standards as tools to measure student proficiency in a subject area.

There are two ways to access and enter learning standards in Aspen:

You can manually create a library of standards that can be aligned to reporting standards for the entire , or by individual teachers in their s.

If a course is graded using a rubric and rubric criteria, districts can align each rubric criteria with learning standards. For example, you might align your Composition rubric criteria "Provides support for ideas" with the Common Core learning standard "CCSS.ELA-Literacy.W.3.1b Provide reasons that support the opinion".

As Grade 3 teachers align writing assignments with this reporting standard in their gradebooks and enter scores, it becomes apparent how Grade 3 students are progressing in meeting this standard.
