Every lesson drifts from the plan. Now you can see it while there is still time.

Inside Edge reads the work students are doing as they do it, compares it with what the lesson intended, and shows the teacher where the two separated. No extra marking, and no waiting for the test.

In early access with a small number of schools. Rollout is one department at a time.

Planned lesson arc against actual lesson arcA dashed arc rises to a peak at the middle of the lesson. A solid amber arc rises to a lower, earlier peak. The wedge between the two arcs is shaded, marking where the lesson separated from the plan.as plannedas it went
The dashed arc is the lesson as planned. The amber arc is where the class actually went. Inside Edge measures the shaded distance between them while the lesson is still running.

Assessment arrives too late to change the lesson.

A test names a gap three weeks after it opened. By then the class has moved on and the lesson that created the gap is out of reach. Teachers feel the drift while it is happening, and rarely have anything concrete to put in front of a department meeting, so the decision about what to reteach gets made from memory.

The information already exists in the room. It has nowhere to go.

How it works

  1. Students work as usual

    Inside Edge reads the work students produce in the tools the school already runs. There is nothing new to mark and nothing new for a student to learn.

  2. The lesson and the class are compared

    Planned intent and observed work are held side by side, per objective, per class, and per student who has opted in.

  3. One signal reaches the teacher

    Where the two separate, the teacher gets the specific work behind the divergence, while the lesson is still running.

What it reports

Objectives that landed
Evidence per objective, taken from the work students actually submitted rather than from a later test.
Where a class split
The item that separated the top third from the bottom third, with the responses behind that split.
Who needs a different task
Named students, in time to change the next lesson instead of the next unit.
Whether the reteach worked
The same objective, measured again after you change course, so an intervention can be judged rather than assumed.

For schools

Inside Edge sits alongside the systems a school already runs. It reads what students produce, keeps a record of what was measured, and answers to the same data rules the school already applies. Nothing is enabled for a student or a class until the school says so.

Rollout
One department for one term. Nothing is switched on across a whole school at once.
Data
Work is read to produce a signal. Retention windows and access are set by the school.
Access
Teacher and administrator accounts are separated, and administrative actions are recorded.
