Edmentum, a leading provider of web-based learning programs, is pleased to announce that the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) recently awarded a Seal of Alignment for Readiness for Edmentum Exact Path. Exact Path utilizes adaptive diagnostic assessments paired with targeted student learning paths to ensure academic growth in K–8 reading, language arts, and math. This seal recognizes Exact Path as a highly effective resource for successfully acquiring knowledge and skills that are foundational to the globally recognized ISTE Standards.

With Exact Path, educators can pinpoint each learner’s ability level using Edmentum’s adaptive diagnostic assessments. High-quality digital curriculum engages different learning modalities, and expert design contributes to building foundational technology skills necessary for success in the digital education age.  

The ISTE report noted: “students enrolled in the Exact Path curriculum will engage in a wide variety of technology-supported activities that will help prepare them for future, deeper opportunities to leverage technology in ways that empower independent student learning.”

ISTE reviewers make their determination for the Seals of Alignment program based on the following indicators from the ISTE Standards for Students:

  • Empowered Learner
  • Digital Citizen
  • Knowledge Constructor
  • Innovative Designer
  • Computational Thinker
  • Creative Communicator
  • Global Collaborator

“Exact Path combines the power of a computer-adaptive assessment with high-quality digital curriculum to ensure students are building critical academic skills in an online environment that embraces 21st century teaching and learning,” said Christy Spivey, Edmentum’s vice president of curriculum and assessment development.

The ISTE Seal of Alignment program can help educators find resources that support the authentic and appropriate integration of education technology in the classroom. Seals are earned only by resources that have passed rigorous review by ISTE’s review team made up of leaders and experts from the fields of education and technology.
