  • Patent number: 12046157
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for adaptive educational activities are disclosed. In one aspect, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a computing device that is configured to grant a given user access to a first group of activity modules based on a classification of the given user, user data and classification data. The method includes granting the user access to a first activity module and a second activity module, and preventing the user from accessing a third activity module. The method includes receiving interaction data based on the user interacting with the first activity module, and determining that the interaction data indicates an improper classification of the user. Based on the interaction data, the method includes maintaining the classification of the user, granting the user access to a fourth activity module, and preventing the user from accessing the second activity module.

  • Publication number: 20150221227
    Abstract: Group-based, periodic education intervention that provides a targeted curriculum selected specifically for each period based on current skill assessment data is described. For example, candidates' skill levels in multiple skills are assessed, and groups are formed based on commonality of skill level. A period-specific curriculum is generated for each group to address the specific needs of the individuals of the respective group. After delivery of the period-specific targeted curriculum over the period, re-assessments of the current skill of the group members are made, and a period-specific curriculum for the subsequent period is generated and delivered. Fidelity of an implementation of the curriculum is analyzed, and alerts, reminders, and reports are provided to improve fidelity of an implementation of the curriculum.

  • Patent number: 8699941
    Abstract: One or more learning map interfaces are displayed. The learning map interfaces include a selection control configured to allow a user to select a subset of assessments from a set of assessments. The subset includes less assessments than the set. Performance information for a student is determined based on the subset of assessments. A learning map is populated with the performance information for the student. The learning map includes a plurality of cells. Each cell corresponds to a learning objective. The plurality of cells is arranged in a manner that reflects a relationship between the learning objectives corresponding to the cells. One or more learning map interfaces are displayed. The learning map interfaces are configured to display the learning map populated with the performance information.

  • Patent number: 8699940
    Abstract: Assessment information relating to multiple, different types of assessments administered to a student is accessed. A learning map includes a plurality of cells. Each cell corresponds to a learning objective. A first performance level of the student is determined based on a first set of assessment items. A first one of the cells is modified to include a first indication of the first performance level. A second performance level of the student is determined based on a second set of assessment items, wherein the first set of assessments include at least one different assessment than the second set of assessments. A second one of the cells is modified to include a second indication of the second performance level. One or more learning map interfaces are displayed. The learning map interfaces are configured to display the learning map populated with performance information.
