Special features of OpenEd
- Free resources such as videos and formative assessments are reviewed for not just for quality but if they are accurately aligned to standards. This includes all of the K-12 Common Core Standards, the Next Gen Science Standards, TEKS Math, TEKS ELA and more.
- OpenEd is now a division of ACT. Your students can access ACT practice quizzes to help them prepare for the exam.
- There is one-click integration with Google Classroom so teachers can make the resources they’ve handpicked for students easily accessible. If you have Google Classroom set up for your students this makes it super easy to share just-right resources with your class.
- Any time a student hasn’t finished an assignment it automatically loads back to Google Classroom. So teachers can monitor student progress. This includes when students need extra help.
