Project Details
The Academic Measurement and Achievement Mentor is a web-based application that assists
students, parents and student aids in assessing and promoting student’s mastery of the Indiana
state academic standards. Students interact with the web-based application through an ageappropriate user interface accessible with an Internet connection. Initial assessments are
conducted in the 4 basic subject areas: English/Language Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies,
and Science. Immediate feedback is provided through graphical and textual summaries that
associate a proficiency rating with each academic standard. Tutorial resources are linked
directly to standards for which the student has demonstrated deficiencies; enrichment
resources are linked to standards which the student has mastered. Student’s user account stores
recent assessment results and progress reports.
