MasteryConnect | Software Engineer | Salt Lake City, UT
MasteryConnect began when an experienced educator was inspired to focus on mastery learning and formative assessment, but was frustrated by a lack of time and tools. He wanted a way to get out of tracking mastery in spreadsheets, speed up the time to grade and provide feedback to students, and provide a way to share great formative assessments with educators around the country.
At MasteryConnect, we believe that through 21st century technology and tools, obstacles to mastery learning are removed. We believe in the power of the common standards and it’s ability to unleash the collective knowledge of teachers all across the country. We believe in data and teachers driving the conversation around assessment and what students are learning. We believe all students can learn.
