Why haven't schools created a unified data system that tracks student progress through multiple subjects and the individual components that make up the content that we teach?
I am envisioning a system where student results are automatically included and accessible by all who interact with this student. This system goes beyond grades. It combines the Khan academy model, with the School of One model, and gives students freedom to pursue concepts and skills at their own pace, rather than the pace of the teacher. Students are tested through adaptive means that help to pinpoint exactly where they are. Teachers enter assignment data for things that computer cannot grade into the system as well. This would be more of a grade like portion, but it would have clearly defined parameters similar to rubrics.
Why don't we have this yet? What is stopping us?
