JumpRope is a standards-based gradebook that empowers communities with meaningful insights about progress and mastery.
Built to tightly connect teaching practices with learning standards, JumpRope makes implementing standards-based grading more intuitive and data-informed.
What is standards-based grading?
A traditional approach communicates summative achievement ― as well as participation, effort, and extra credit ― with a single percentage or letter grade. This approach values the completion of work more than learning.
Standards-based grading is a system for measuring and reporting students’ progress toward mastering learning goals. It involves examining evidence of multiple standards over time to determine what students have learned and what they still need to learn.
Make learning more meaningful
Empower teachers to give actionable feedback to learners and differentiate instruction. Empower students to own their learning and truly master all the skills and habits that promote success. And empower families to support the learning process in the most productive ways.
Together, you’ll shift the conversation to be about learning ― not grades or completion. And then school will become a place where all students have the opportunity to succeed.
