Academic Advantages of Using Smart Space

If you are administering all diagnostic, interim, quizzes, unit assessments etc… un-monitored with no active proctor, is your data valid?  

If every assessment you give is potentially open book, open neighbor/parent, open google with zero way to ensure that it is not, how are you confidently accepting that data as the child’s ability level and making instructional decisions based off it?


Teaching reading

  • without seeing them repeat the sounds that you are asking them to.

  • Asking them to write sight words and never really knowing if they actually did.

  • Modeling finger stretching and assuming they are doing it along with you.

  • Reading the story after requesting that they follow along with no way to see if they are or if they are looking everywhere and anywhere but at the book or screen where the story is displayed.
