Joining a very crowded market of education-related software comes EdPerformance.com, which is a set of web-based tests designed to allow teachers to determine at which level their students are in different skills: reading, language, math and science. It is designed by Scantron, a segment leader, to meet state regulations and requirements. In order to take the test, users need an ID provided by the school, so you won’t be able to understand how the system works without paying for the software, which seems a bit of a problem. As we all unfortunately know, individual and under-paid teachers are the ones who usually detect learning problems and the ones who do their own independent research in order to come across solutions. Lack of concrete information and interactive demos on how Performance Software works is not a wonderful teaser that will make teachers rush to their finance department at school and prompt them to buy an ID for the software; the opposite is true: it will rush them into the search engine results and into the competitors’ arms.
