Content is curated using a human and machine-generated tagging system. Educators and content exporters add metadata tags, such as competency and standards tags, depth of knowledge, and types of resources. Other tags such as relevance, engagement, and efficacy are algorithmically generated using activity stream data and Bayesian Knowledge Tracing techniques.
A full spectrum of learning resources, such as media-rich interactives, videos, labs, narratives, presentations, and offline rubric graded projects and experiential learning activities are available. Machine-graded and teacher-rubric graded formative assessments can be searched and assigned to help all learners develop complex and abstract knowledge in a variety of subjects and domains.
